Avalanche Issue Several Injury Updates

May 9, 2023 at 6:59 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose 2 Comments

Colorado was dealt a serious blow for next season earlier today when it was announced that captain Gabriel Landeskog would miss all of 2023-24 and will be undergoing a cartilage transplant in his surgically-repaired knee.  Speaking with reporters today (video link), GM Chris MacFarland issued several other injury updates.

  • Winger Andrew Cogliano, who suffered a fractured neck in their opening-round loss to Seattle, is not expected to need surgery. The veteran, who also was dealing with an AC sprain, is expected to have a recovery timeline of six-to-eight weeks, meaning he should be fully recovered before reaching unrestricted free agency in July.  The 35-year-old potted ten goals and nine assists in 79 games for the Avs this season.
  • Winger Artturi Lehkonen, who recovered from a broken finger in time for the playoffs, sustained a broken toe during the series against the Kraken. The 27-year-old was able to play through the injury and finished fourth in scoring in the series with three goals and three assists.  Lehkonen, who had a career year during the season with 20 goals and 31 assists, will not suit up at the upcoming World Championship due to the injury.
  • Goaltender Pavel Francouz has undergone surgery to repair an adductor injury but is expected to be fully ready for training camp in the fall. The 32-year-old dealt with lower-body trouble during the season which limited him to just 16 games where he posted a 2.61 GAA and a .915 SV%.
  • Defenseman Josh Manson had a procedure done last week after being sidelined with a lower-body injury of his own during the series. He, too, is expected to be ready in time for training camp.  Manson had an injury-riddled first full campaign with the Avalanche and was limited to just 27 games during the regular season before missing the final two playoff contests.

    It’s amazing the amount of injuries that this team sustained this year and was still a 1 seed. Hopefully they get healthy and can replace Gave as best as possible somehow to make a run next year.

    If I were Cogs I’d give serious thought about hanging em up. He has had a great year and has won a Cup. Not much more to accomplish.
