Overview
- Knight disclosed on CBS Mornings that she tore her MCL during the Milan Games and is currently missing games for the PWHL’s Seattle Torrent.
- The Torrent placed her on long-term injured reserve after the Olympics, with team leadership emphasizing support as she rehabs.
- She scored the late equalizer against Canada before the U.S. won in overtime, setting American Olympic records for career goals (15) and points (33).
- Reporting points to a Feb. 7 collision versus Finland as the likely source of the knee injury, though Knight did not specify when it occurred.
- Knight said she is “certainly capable” of another Olympics, and the women’s team declined the State of the Union invitation due to scheduling conflicts after public attention to the president’s joke.
