    Avalanche captain Gabe Landeskog waited nearly three years to play again in a hockey game. He’ll wait only 24 hours to play his next one. Landeskog, 32, began a conditioning stint with the Colorado Eagles – the Colorado Avalanche’s AHL affiliate – when he played in the Eagles’ 2-0 loss to the visiting Henderson Silver Knights, but the game’s result definitely wasn’t the point. Landeskog played for roughly 15 minutes in Friday’s loss, and seemed none the worse for wear following the game.

    Tonight, the Avalanche’s captain is finally on his way back. After playing through a serious knee injury during the team’s 2021-22 playoff run that saw them win their third championship and hoist the Stanley Cup, Gabe Landeskog’s career has been on hold after a lengthy recovery from cartilage replacement surgery.

    BOULDER — Back to work. After a day off Monday, Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes were back at it Tuesday morning, preparing for Saturday’s Big 12 opener, a 6 p.m. Homecoming matchup with Baylor at Folsom Field (Fox). Both teams enter the game with 2-1 records after each collected a big win over a Mountain West opponent last weekend. The Buffs dominated Colorado State, 28-9, while the Bears used a big second half to thump Air Force, 31-3.

    Colorado’s renowned for its pioneering spirit, and one of Colorado’s own forged a brand new trail on Tuesday, as longtime Colorado Rockies broadcaster Jenny Cavnar became the first woman to take over primary play-by-play duties for a Major League Baseball team. Cavnar joins the A’s organization this spring, as the team prepares to move from its longtime home in Oakland to glittering Las Vegas, site of the just-completed Super Bowl LVIII, and the nation’s newest sports hotbed.

Agreed. I’ve said for most of the year that — given the shallow, subpar roster and endless injury battles — I’ve felt it was perhaps Malone’s best NBA season from a coaching perspective. He wasn’t the problem.
