Avalanche's Gabriel Landeskog: Finds twine Sunday

Landeskog lit the lamp in a 5-2 loss Sunday to the Wild.

Analysis:

The 24-year-old Swede hadn't found the back of the net in 12 games prior to Sunday, which is a drought that's contributed to a somewhat disappointing 16 goals this year. Landeskog's 30 points and minus-22 rating are by far the worst marks of his six-year career -- something that's due in large part to the struggles of the Avs as a whole this season -- so look for the captain to bounce back when he gets a clean slate to work with next fall.
