Minnesota Wild GM Chuck Fletcher says Josh Harding has been feeling "off," while he searches for the right mix of medications to battle his multiple sclerosis. Harding was supposed to start Tuesday, but will likely be replaced by call-up Darcy Kuemper. "He just feels a little bit off. What he's going through right now, he's dealing with some medications," Fletcher said Tuesday. "There's a lot of trial and error. Every situation is different. The doctors advised us of this a few weeks ago that eventually we will get to the right spot where the medication works and his body adapts to it." We wish Harding all the best and hope the illness doesn't keep him from playing in the NHL.
