Colorado Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog left Wednesday night's Stanley Cup playoff game late in the second period after appearing to have his leg cut by teammate Cale Makar. Makar had fallen to the ice just as Landeskog was moving away from the side boards, and Makar's skate clipped him just above the knee -- definitely cutting his sock. Landeskog slowly made his way to the bench and headed straight to the dressing room. He didn't return immediately after the second intermission.

The Avalanche, who went into the game trailing the Dallas Stars 3-2 in their best-of-seven Western Conference semifinal series, have been hit by a variety of injuries. They were already without their top two goaltenders in Philipp Grubauer and Pavel Francouz, defenseman Erik Johnson and forwards Matt Calvert and Joonas Donskoi. Defenseman Conor Timmins left the game early in the second period.
