He then slid into the Panthers\u2019 net, striking the goal post with his midsection. His left skate was the one that caught a rut in the ice.<\/p>\n<p>Landeskog remained down for several minutes before getting helped off the ice. He was unable to skate off on his own, needing both the Avs\u2019 trainer and Nathan MacKinnon to assist him.<\/p>\n<p>Head coach Jared Bednar said after the game that Landeskog is going to miss some time.<\/p>\n<p>After missing three years with a knee injury, Landeskog has played in every game since returning in Game 3 of last year\u2019s first-round playoff series. He has seven goals and 22 points in 41 regular-season games this year and was elevated to the top line for the past several weeks.<\/p>\n<p>More to come.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Gabriel Landeskog needed assistance leaving the ice after crashing hard into the post. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/3PeGwYxuKz\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/3PeGwYxuKz<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Sportsnet\/status\/2007955273311236464?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">January 4, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.paypal.com\/paypalme\/colhockeynow\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/CHNS-Tip-Jar.png\" alt=\"Contribute to CHN's travel and support local journalism!\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Gabriel Landeskog left Sunday\u2019s game in the second period against the Florida Panthers with an upper-body injury.
