Colorado captain Gabriel Landeskog took a small step today in his recovery from a head injury, with the Denver Post reporting the 20-year-old “skated for an unspecified length of time at the team’s practice facility, with Avs medical personnel looking on.”

The club would only tell the paper that Landeskog is “going through the process” of recovery.

Landeskog -- the 2011-12 rookie of the year -- was hurt on Jan. 26 when he was leveled by San Jose defenseman Brad Stuart.

In the meantime, he seems to be maintaining a positive attitude.

It’s important to appreciate the little things in life. I just hit 11 green lights in a row. That’s a great way to start a Sunday.
