Wild recall Hammond to replace injured Talbot, Greenway in COVID protocol

The Minnesota Wild are on a five-game losing streak and the one player that has stolen some games for them recently, might not be on the roster for a little bit.

After two periods of the Winter Classic on Saturday, goaltender Cam Talbot had to be replaced by backup Kaapo Kahkonen, and it wasn’t just because they were down by a lot of goals. Later, it was revealed that he had to leave the ice due to a lower-body injury and the Wild’s starter that has had the ultimate trust to be the final wall of defense to carry them through a successful early season, will be missing an unknown amount of time.
