Landeskog Shatters Records with Dual Awards

Gabriel Landeskog just shattered records by becoming the first player ever to win both the Bill Masterton Memorial Trophy and the Mark Messier Leadership Award in the same season — and the first to ever win both in his career. After missing three seasons due to multiple knee surgeries, including a cartilage transplant, he returned stronger than ever, scoring 35 points in 60 regular-season games and 11 points in 13 playoff games. As captain of the Colorado Avalanche for 14 seasons and Team Sweden at the 2026 Winter Olympics, his leadership on and off the ice — plus his community work across Colorado — earned him widespread respect. The Avalanche’s record soared when he played (45-7-8) and plummeted without him (10-9-3), proving his impact. This historic double award is a powerful tribute to his resilience, dedication, and enduring influence on the game. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
