Erik Johnson will always be a part of the Landeskog family no matter what jersey he wears.
The Buffalo Sabres defenseman had a special pregame moment with Colorado Avalanche captain Gabriel Landeskog, his wife and two kids at Ball Arena on Wednesday.
During warmups, Landeskog’s kids held up a sign that read “Wrong jersey but we still love you Uncle EJ” behind the glass.
Johnson skated up to Landeskog, who is currently out with a knee injury, and his family, to give them fist bumps through the glass. The veteran forward gifted the kids a puck.
