Gabriel Landeskog’s return to the Colorado Avalanche isn’t just about getting a star player back on the ice—it’s about the impact he’s already having on the team’s next generation. Even before the season starts, Landeskog is mentoring young prospects like Nikita Prishchepov, answering questions and setting the tone for a supportive, winning culture. His presence at practice is a game-changer for rookies trying to find their place. The Avalanche’s future looks brighter with Landeskog guiding the way, and it’s clear why he was once the youngest captain in NHL history. How important do you think veteran leadership is for developing young talent? #Sports #IceHockey #Avalanche
