Flames: Brodie ‘feeling good’ after collapsing during practice

-

Calgary Flames general manager Brad Treliving said Friday that T.J. Brodie was at home and “feeling good” after the defenceman unexpected­ly collapsed during a team practice.

Treliving said that Brodie’s neurologic­al tests came back negative, but added there were more tests to be done and the team’s medical staff would leave “no stone unturned.”

At practice Thursday, Brodie fell to the ice and started convulsing. He was taken to hospital for evaluation.

“After a few minutes, TJ was alert, he was responsive,” Treliving said. “He was transporte­d to Foothills Hospital and he remained there for the remainder of the day into the early evening. A battery of tests took place and then TJ was released. He was at home last night resting with his family.”
