Landeskog Scores First in 1,347 Days as Avalanche Beat Ducks 4-1

The captain returned to the scoresheet after multiple knee surgeries that sidelined him for three seasons.

Overview

  • Nathan MacKinnon recorded three assists to reach an NHL-leading 32 points this season.
  • Scott Wedgewood made 35 saves on 36 shots for his league-best 10th win, his seventh start allowing one goal or fewer in 14 outings.
  • Landeskog buried a Valeri Nichushkin rebound midway through the second period to put Colorado ahead 2-1 as the home crowd chanted “Landy.”
  • Artturi Lehkonen opened the scoring 28 seconds in, Martin Necas added a power-play goal, and Parker Kelly finished it with an empty-netter.
  • Anaheim’s seven-game winning streak ended as Leo Carlsson scored for his 100th career point and Lukas Dostal stopped 32 shots while the league’s highest-scoring team was limited to one goal.
