We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
- Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server -

I hope he can get fully healthy.

Landeskog - Nelson - Nikushkin
Drouin - Coyle - Colton
That would be really solid.

Wow, last time I heard he was quite a ways away. His goal is to play in the playoffs this season?

As a fan of the game first, it’s really awesome to see him making the comeback. True dedication and resilience on his part, and patient loyalty from the organization.
Not only that. Imagine they gotta go up against Dallas?
If Colorado played a long term LTIR game for a player by sitting them for over three years then they deserve the benefits.

I get frustrated when I have a minor strain and can't lift for a few weeks due to needing to recover.
Can't imagine the mental toughness and growth he has had to endure and push through the last few years

... and most of that beyond the age of 30.
Still a total unknown how prepared he is to play an NHL paced game, and how many he may be able to last.
It would be a great story if he can return and still be a functional NHL player even if he's not what he used to be. Best of luck to him.
He sustained a cut from Makar during the 2020 playoffs and it started from there.

He did a 45 minute interview with Altitude that’s a good watch. He not only talked about the physical recovery as well as the mental side of his career being in limbo. Highly recommend, it’s on YouTube.

Only nobodies freak out over this.
Good luck on the rest of your recovery Landeskog... been a long road but the light's at the end of the tunnel. Here's hoping to a strong finish to his NHL career playing a game he clearly loves.

Helps when you've got $50 mill in earnings to go on vacations. It's also easy to imagine, just look at older people working in construction. Many of them are pushing through with injuries and such for little money.

He describes it very well on the latest episode of spitting chicklets.
He had some cadaver parts put in his knee, Karlsson also had some cadaver parts put in his ankle after 2017 playoffs.

So click play on the videos.
He participated in his first team practice in 995 days.
Will they send him to the AHL ? i know he needs it but could be a slap in the face if he gets injured and his last game is not in the NHL

Do you think he will return? He would be the first ever player to return from a knee operation of the kind he had. Asking for real no sarcasm.

Would be pretty incredible if he made a comeback. I can only imagine how much this boosts morale in the room.
Why do they call it hamburger when it contains no ham ?
If Colorado has used his cap space and Landeskog is ready for day 1 of the playoffs but not a moment sooner, it’s exactly the same as Tampa/Vegas.
The question isn’t the validity of the injuries. It’s the timing of health coinciding exactly with the moment it no longer becomes a cap concern.
It’ll be the same if Kane is ready day 1 for the Oilers.
All of these teams are circumventing the cap and the league just looks the other way.
