Almond Injured


He's worked his heart out all summer long to get into the best shape of his life and now Cody Almond is limping into Minnesota Wild training camp. Almond, who isn't expected to be back with the Rockets this season, suffered a knee injury last week during training camp. The injury came just days before the 20 year-old heads off to Minnesota. Almond will meet with the Wild's medical staff to review an MRI later this week . Almond told me Monday he anticipates being out of action for about 4 weeks.
Almond is one of 12 Rockets attending an NHL training camp. Tyler Myers (Buffalo), Evan and Lucas Bloodoff (Coyotes), Colin Long (Coyotes), Tyson Barrie (Colorado), Collin Bowman (Ottawa), Mitchell Callahan (Detroit), Brandon McMillan (Ducks), Kyle St. Denis (Dallas), Stepan Novotny (Oilers) and Jamie Benn (Stars).
