About this episode
Gabriel Landeskog’s absence leaves a bigger void than stats reveal for the Colorado Avalanche. While Nathan MacKinnon dazzles with Hart Trophy-caliber performances, Chris Micieli and Zach Pearson ask: is Landeskog actually the Avs’ true MVP? Team dynamics, leadership intangibles, and a stark contrast in win-loss records with and without Landeskog spark a debate on what “most valuable” really means in Denver.
Chris Micieli and Zach Pearson also break down the Avalanche’s heated battle with the Dallas Stars for Central Division supremacy. Key matchups, special teams threats like Wyatt Johnston, and pivotal upcoming games fuel the rivalry. Plus, get the latest power rankings for the Avs, Stars, and more NHL contenders as the playoff picture sharpens. Will Landeskog’s return tip the balance, or does Colorado’s depth have what it takes for another deep run?
