Avalanche eye early March return for Landeskog. MORE:
The Colorado Avalanche are hoping to have captain Gabriel Landeskog back in their lineup near the NHL's March 3 trade deadline,Landeskog has yet to play this season after undergoing hip surgery in October. The latest update on the forward came earlier this month when head coach Jared Bednar said Landeskog was “nowhere close” to a return.
"I think the Colorado Avalanche is a team to monitor when it comes to Sean Monahan," LeBrun said Thursday on Insider Trading. "For starters, let’s look at the Avs’ salary cap situation. "The answer is no, as I found out today. The Avalanche expect Landeskog to be playing way before the end of the regular season, they hope by early March. His $7 million cap hit will be on the books, so they don’t have that much cap room to play with. So, when it comes to Ryan O’Reilly or Bo Horvat, yes, I think the Avs are going to keep tabs on those situations. However, they don’t have a lot of future assets.
Acquired by the Canadiens in the off-season, Monahan has six goals and 17 points in 25 games this season. He is a pending unrestricted free agent, carrying a cap hit of $6.375 million.
