Avalanche captain Landeskog to miss several games after crashing into goalpost in game against Florida Panthers.

Colorado Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog suffered a scary injury to his rib area during their 2-1 loss to the Florida Panthers in Sunrise on Sunday.

Landeskog lost an edge and crashed into the goalpost during the second period. Colorado's captain needed assistance leaving the ice and didn't come out for the start of the final frame. The Avalanche conclude their road trip Tuesday in Tampa Bay, and given the nature of his injury, Landeskog shouldn't be expected to suit up for that matchup.

Team Sweden has announced its roster for the upcoming Olympic Games in Milan. The squad features plenty of NHL experience, including Victor Hedman, William Nylander, and Gabriel Landeskog.
