DENVER — Avalanche captain Gabe Landeskog is taking the next step in his return to the team.
Landeskog was sent to the Colorado Eagles, the Avs’ AHL affiliate in Loveland, to begin a conditioning assignment. He will practice with the team and could play in the Eagles final two regular season home games on Friday and Saturday against Henderson.
The Eagles play their final three games of the regular season on the road next week.

The Avalanche's regular season ends Sunday in Anaheim.
Landeskog has been practicing with the Avs, but playing in a game could be the final test to pass before he is potentially activated for the playoffs.
Avs head coach Jared Bednar appeared on his weekly radio show Wednesday, saying this is the closest Landeskog has been to a return to the ice since he last played nearly three years ago.
