Landeskog is taking some shots here... looks almost normal. Towards the end, MacKinnon sets him up for a couple of shots from one knee 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Landeskog doing backward C-cuts. The speed is better than the other day, and he is going both directions to test both knees.

Landeskog working on C-cuts and has added crossovers. This is meant to be a rehab drill to test the knees and he is holding up.

Landeskog is getting commands from the trainers for "outside edge" during these. Here, he is doing lunges on the outside edges 😳. Extremely stressful on the knees, and he is doing it on the repaired knee 👏

Andrew Cogliano is back after being gone since July 18th. He is skating alongside Artturi Lehkonen, who just arrived in Denver.

Former

winger and enforcer Chris Simon has taken his life at just 52 years old. He played 146 games for the franchise, earning a Stanley Cup in 1996. He is one of the reasons I became a fan of the game. GONE TOO SOON.

Landeskog has moved to the other rink away from the team. He is warming up here.... and this looks significantly better than his skating last season

Josh Manson did the coolest thing, he left the ice and started doing pics, autographs and talking to a group of kids and parents. Truly a man of the people

Landeskog taking shots. He is putting some weight on the right leg during the shot (the bad knee) which is somewhat encouraging.

The rest of the team is practicing on the other rink, but Landeskog is putting in the work. Saw him dona half slapper and put full weight on his right leg as well (injured leg).

Makar and Helm doing a board battle. The fact that both are doing some contact is a fantastic sign for both of them. They did this about three times.

I have said it before... I am saying it again... Kurtis MacDermid is one of the hardest working players on the

One year ago, the Colorado Avalanche added their third Stanley Cup in franchise history. Where were you when they lifted Lord Stanley?

I love that Bo is still joking around with Donny in this. I never had a bad interaction with Bo. He was always so positive and had a smile on his face.

Thats a wrap for today. Landeskog did about 50 minutes on the ice. All lights skating but stuff that was stressful on the knees. Very encouraging stuff today.
