It’s mind-boggling that TJ Brodie has already been a Calgary Flame for nearly a decade. Over the course of his tenure here, Brodie has received praise for his smooth skating and crisp breakout passes while also receiving criticism at times for occasional lapses in judgement in his own end.
One thing most Flames supporters can agree on is that Brodie and Mark Giordano work extremely well together. They formed a splendid pair for a few years before being split up by former coach Glen Gulutzan during the 2016–17 season. But they’ve been paired again for the last two years, with both players responding by providing the Flames with excellent hockey.
