Ball Arena was electric on Saturday night when Landeskog scored. Watch out, Colorado may have it all going on now.

DENVER — Gabriel Landeskog's right knee feels “really good” two days after his first NHL game in nearly three seasons. No issues whatsoever. His thumbs may soon be a different story. The Colorado Avalanche captain vowed to respond to the more than 130 unread text messages from family, friends and fellow players congratulating him on his comeback.

Landeskog finished a drop pass from Brock Nelson with a quick shot past Stars goalie Jake Oettinger at 13:10 of the second period. The goal marked his first since June 20, 2022, when he scored against the Tampa Bay Lightning in the Stanley Cup Final.
