Flames’ Brodie returns to practice, listed as game-time decision Monday

Calgary Flames defenseman T.J. Brodie skated with the team on Sunday for the first time since collapsing during practice on Nov. 14.

Brodie, who has missed the club's last five games, is listed as a game-time decision for Monday's tilt with the Pittsburgh Penguins, according to Sportsnet's Ryan Leslie.

The 29-year-old was immediately taken to the hospital following the incident. He was discharged later that day and has been recovering at home since. Flames doctor Ian Auld said Brodie's episode is likely related to fainting as opposed to a brain issue.

Brodie (black jersey) looked comfortable as he took part in drills during the optional skate.

The 6-foot-1 rearguard has contributed eight assists through 21 games this season while logging an average of 19:13 of ice time per game.
