** This procedure was previously reported in Octobers as arthroscopic surgery, with a timeline of 12 weeks for recovery.** Today we were told this year's procedure was not as involved as the one prior to the playoffs. "The exact opposite" as far as severity.

We talked to Jared Bednar today about Gabriel Landeskog's medical timeline, and our best understanding of the process is that he:* Had surgery "at the bubble on his quad"* Had "surgery on his knee going into the playoffs"* Had a "procedure" in "November"

Jared Bednar said Gabriel Landeskog’s knee surgery this fall was unrelated to the one he had last March, though “I’m sure it didn’t help.” The coach acknowledged he’s concerned, but he also thinks Landeskog could easily come out of this and be fine. Time will tell.

From Bednar:•EJ is 3 wks into what the team originally thought was a 8-10 wk timeline•Bednar is “cautiously optimistic” Helm will return this yr•Hopeful Manson will return at end of month•Francouz recovering slower than expected. Still hopeful he’ll return this year

Jared Bednar on if he needs to address Mikko Rantanen’s unsportsmanlike conduct penalties for jawing at refs: “Already have.”He said Rantanen can’t do that. The winger knows it. Bednar talked to him at intermission. He understood and was receptive, so Bednar didn’t bench him.

Valeri Nichushkin is on the ice for warm up. Alexandar Georgiev led the Avs on, so he's in line to start.

@rboulding
Unlikely to know Nichushkin's status until we see whether he's on the ice or not for pregame warmup. https://t.co/45Y8mPFAdN

Good news: #Avs GM Chris MacFarland said there are no long-term concerns over the health of Valeri Nichushkin's surgically repaired ankle.

In late December, he shut down briefly with "complications" to that ankle. Still feels like there's been some burst missing from his game.

#Avs Josh Manson "will miss some time" with no timetable for his return. Related to injury that he just had, per Bednar.

Valeri Nichushkin is sick and it's unknown if he will make the trip.
