The Minnesota Wild have sent goalie Josh Harding to AHL Houston on a conditioning assignment, the club announced today.

The Aeros play Friday, Saturday, and Sunday; and according to the Star Tribune, Harding is expected to play two of those three games.

Harding, 28, has been sidelined since the middle of February due to complications with multiple sclerosis.

“I see the light at the end of the tunnel,” he said last week after practicing with his Wild teammates. “It’s a great feeling.

“I’m definitely on the right track.”
