Avalanche's Brandon Kozun: Suffers lower-body injury

Kozun missed practice Friday with a lower-body injury, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

Kozun is on a PTO with the Avalanche and the injury can't help his chances of receiving a contract. Kozun played 20 games with the Maple Leafs in 2014-15, the only NHL action in his career. He spent the last eight years playing in Europe, seven in the KHL and one season in the Swiss League.
