Landy looking good

Man... He looks really, really good.


This is the first time I feel like he might be getting close to a "Timeline" for return.

Feels like the questions have shifted from "If he makes a comeback" to "when he makes a comeback."

 

[SirLoinOfCloth]

Seriously, the sack is gonna suffer a testicular rupture when Landy hits the ice for his first game back. Holy f***.

I guess for some poor souls who didn't keep the faith.

 

[Pokecheque]

I remain of the mindset that it would be a minor miracle to see him in full gear and on the ice on a gameday.

if the Avalanche draw Vegas in the first round and Landeskog comes back for Game 1, I might die pleasuring myself

 

[AvsMakar08]

Nichushkin is knuckles deep in some ass with powder on his nose as we speak most likely.

"Needs some time" my ass, Jared. We know you covering for him you dirty dog.

Nahh, Nukie ain't gonna let us down.

Nuke is the most important player come playoffs. Nuke is just healing his injuries and hopefully he will be back in lineup soon.

 

[missionAvs]

I already told my wife that as soon as I see word that a Landy return is coming, I'm getting some tickets and flying to Denver for a visit to the sack.

Only a Viking God could perform that miracle. That's why I never had a doubt.

Waste of 8 days

That's an immediate stiffy. Especially if he f***s up Mark Stone while yelling "THIS IS WHAT REAL LTIR LOOKS LIKE"

This kinda chaps my hide. You know what, pal? I Olli Jokinen you!

Thank god he constantly f***s us over during the playoffs then.

Yep...

 

[Foppa2118]

Landy looking good

Man, that cap hit...I mean knee surgery is starting to heal up nicely.

 

[Metallo]

Be smart Avs, stash the Viking until the playoffs: for cap reasons and also for that huge emotional bump at just the right time.

He needs time to shake off the 3 year rust tho. Can't just jump right back into the playoffs.

Someone will go on LTIR after 4 nation's to free up Landy.

 

[Foppa2118]

Gabe is looking damn good, but based upon past experience with other top tier players and similar injuries I am skeptical of the long-term outlook. If he can come back and participate in the playoffs and help the team win another cup it's a huge win. I honestly don't see much beyond that but am cautiously optimistic.

There aren't really many other comparable situations though with this knee cartilage transplant surgery.

Lonzo Ball and a European soccer player are the only ones I believe. Both came back and played.

Ball in October, and I think he's been playing ok, but maybe someone who follows more closely can comment?

Lonzo Ball had a bit of a rough start to the season. He was quite rusty and he also ended up with an unfortunate wrist injury which caused him to miss several games right after he returned.

But since the start of January he's been trending upwards sharply. In 14 games from October-December he only shot above 40% from the field (his career average) in 5 of them. In 6 games in January he's shot above that mark 4 times and is at 45% for the month to date.

Looked like he had a pretty solid game the other day in a starting role too right?

[Valushkin]

When Landy comes back, this is gonna be us on here checking to see if Landy made it through a game alright and is he good to go the next game

 

[famicommander]

Yeah. He also dunked for the first time since the injury recently.
