The 33-year-old's absence had been unclear for a long time, but after the 3-2 victory over Washington, in which he scored his tenth goal of the season, the Swedish NHL star explained why he had not been in the lineups lately.
"I had a quick operation to fix some things," he told the Denver Post.
I got hit in the scrotum.
According to the newspaper, it was a shot from teammate Cale Makar that hit him badly in the game against Dallas on March 7.
Landeskog also said he suffered a rib fracture earlier in the season.
