Gabriel Landeskog OUT

Gabriel Landeskog gets three-game suspension for Avalanche

Colorado Avalanche winger Gabriel Landeskog has received a three-game suspension for his high crosscheck to Anaheim Ducks' Simon Despres.

What It Means:

The incident occurred during Wednesday's contest. Landeskog, who is considered a repeat offender, will lose $203,832.73 in salary. He'll be eligible to return on March 20 against the Edmonton Oilers. He has 46 points (17 goals, 29 assists) in 65 contests in 2015-16.

Despite the solid point production, Landeskog has been poor at driving possession this season. His Corsi For Percentage is 45.5, and his Relative Corsi For at Even Strength is 0.0, both of which are career lows. We currently project Landeskog to tally another 11 points (four goals, seven assists) over the remaining course of the season.
