Overview

  • Coach Jared Bednar said Devon Toews is out at least two weeks and is expected to return before Gabriel Landeskog.
  • Bednar described Landeskog’s upper-body issue as a matter of “some weeks” following a rib-area impact with the goalpost.
  • Both were named to Olympic rosters—Landeskog for Sweden and Toews for Canada—and Bednar said it is too early to rule out Landeskog for Milan.
  • Colorado leads the NHL at 31-3-7 with 69 points and closes a road trip in Tampa Bay before a seven-game homestand.
  • Toews was injured when he was tripped into the boards against Carolina; Landeskog has 7 goals and 22 points in 41 games, while Toews has 13 points in 40.
