Gabriel Landis cog has been activated from the long-term injured reserve This means that he is available and a real legitimate option for Jared Bednar to slot into the lineup tonight So we could see Gabriel Landis cog potentially playing his first NHL game since 2022 when he skated in Tampa Bay for game 6 of the 2022 Stanley Cup Finals where the ABS would lift Lord Stanley and take home their third Franchise Stanley Cup now as we know the journey for Gabe Landis cog has been an absolute Rollercoaster the initial injury on his quad from kale McCar's skate and then the knee injury Which caused him to not play a game in the NHL since as we just said that 2022 Stanley Cup final game He has gone through loads and loads of recovery rehab Hasn't been able to skate for a very long time he's been around the team and in the locker room, but he hasn't been suiting up and lacing up the skates and Going on the ice with the team which is such a mental block and a mental barrier for both him as the captain and as the player and For the team who hasn't had their captain that player wearing the sea on the ice for over two years. So to have him Activated off the LTI are after these kind of last few weeks where we've seen So many insane updates around Landis cog all these documentaries and this media coverage dropping Going up to Loveland, Colorado and doing a three-day conditioning stint with the Colorado Eagles the AHL affiliate of the Colorado Avalanche where we had saw him have points in both games that he played as well as a goal in the second game for him to be activated off the LTI are and a legitimately viable option for the Colorado Avalanche tonight is Massive now the media this morning spoke with Jared Bednar about Landis cog and the potential of him playing tonight especially considering the Ross Colton injury in which he most likely will not be an option for this evening's game and Bednar said that he's unsure yet and that we will see if he is going to be the Person slotted into the lineup for game two instead of Ross Colton tonight The other option is of course miles wood who was scratched and did not play in game one of the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but regardless to see the potential of Gabe Landis cog making his return tonight is Absolutely massive and of course the question raised is raised as to how well he'll be able to play and how good he's gonna be able to fit in and Mix with the roster He hasn't played with a lot of these players because the roster has changed so much Since the last time he laced him up and put on that burgundy and blue sweater But just to have him suited up on the ice on the bench in the locker room as a player for this team It's gonna fire up that team and even the fan base watching so much and it's got everybody Absolutely dialed in take a look at a news release this morning the Colorado Avalanche who as we've already talked about activated the captain off injured reserve Landis cog hasn't played a game since 2022 his chronic right knee injury that led to two surgeries has kept him off the ice through Multiple attempts to get him back and after his two-game conditioning stint in the AHL It is a another step forward in this rollercoaster process for Gabe Landis cog making his return to the Colorado Avalanche tonight and another conversation point as to whether or not he'll make his return tonight is a lot of people have been saying that it could be the Delay waiting for game three of the series where Gabe Landis cog will return in Ball arena at home in Denver, Colorado in front of a home crowd Clearly the ABS had no problems without Any of these players in the lineup the other night they handled the Dallas Stars Splendidly in game one of the Stanley Cup playoffs around one where they beat the Stars five to one so they could be waiting to slot Landis cog into the lineup until They're back home in Denver, Colorado on for game three of the series on Wednesday But either way to have him off of LTI are and as a valid and potential option for The Colorado Avalanche tonight. It is getting the team and the fans and everybody absolutely jazzed up and ready to go and The team is doing well in general so much depth in this Colorado Avalanche lineup right now Jared Bednar was asked this morning if they compared the two game ones where last year The ABS took a game one win over the Dallas Stars in the second round of the playoffs But it was by the skin on their teeth. It was a very close game it went to overtime and The Stars were all over the ABS during overtime and the ABS were barely able to score and get that game one win versus this year where it was all Colorado McKenzie Blackwood had an amazing playoff debut and a 5-1 win showed the depth the Speed and the dominance of this Colorado Avalanche team But Jared Bednar said in the media this morning, they are not comparing these games or These series to last year. Everything is fresh everything is new Bednar exclaimed that this is a new team and a team that is different in a lot of different realms and aspects of hockey and so they are fully prepared to Make no comparisons to last year and just continue to see how the team is doing in every aspect of this season And continue to assert their dominance as much as possible in this series over the Dallas Stars We take a look at the lineups for tonight projected lineups That is this was last game's lineup and you wonder where Ross or excuse me where Gabe Lanscog would potentially be slotted into the lineup if They're going to play him tonight Obviously the scratches on the offensive side of things for the ABS in the last game where Miles would and Gabe Lanscog But now Ross Colton who left game one with a lower body injury and is not feeling up to the task to play tonight That's that third line right wing spot in which we're not sure Where we're gonna see a new player in the lineup tonight Now, of course, the option could be to slot miles would into that third line and let him play Against the Stars tonight. But of course the bigger Idea and the bigger piece of news is where would Gabe Lanscog the captain who has just been activated off LTI RB slotted into the lineup Lanscog obviously primarily a left wing so you could slot him into the third lineup and bump you all kitty Ranta over to the right wing and let Lanscog take over the left wing or you could Completely flip Lanscog and Ross Colton and just let Lanscog play the right wing tonight Or you could if you're Jared Bednar you could mess a little bit with just the third and the fourth line in general Maybe you're bumping you all kitty Ranta down to the fourth line or you're bumping Parker Kelly up to the third line I think a line with Parker Kelly Charlie Coyle and Gabe Lanscog Would be massive for the Colorado Avalanche a lot of different options and a lot of different things that are Potentially available for coach Jared Bednar to do and something else he was asked in the press conference this morning Does the Dallas Stars lineup and the other coaching decisions affect his mindset and what he wants to do? Heading into a game as large as the stakes as this one And he said that it kind of does it sort of depends on just what he's feeling and where his mindset is at but if the Dallas Stars Potentially make a different lineup change or something that Jared Bednar thinks could be dealt with with a different lineup There's a there's a scenario where he deals with it differently So huge news for the Colorado Avalanche Gabe Lanscog activated off LTIR and is a option to play in game two of the Stanley Cup playoffs against the Dallas Stars tonight Not a for sure thing yet, but to have him activated on LTIR is Absolutely massive no Ross Colton most likely this evening and on the other side of the ice Jason Robertson will not play in game two as well as Miro Haskin is still out of the lineup for the Dallas Stars Abs have a one-nothing lead in the first round of the playoffs over the Dallas Stars with huge news that has major implications We'll see what they're able to do in game two tonight in Dallas
