TJ Brodie Fantasy Stats

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman T.J. Brodie will make his 2024 playoff debut on Saturday in Game 4 of the team's first-round series against the Boston Bruins. Brodie had been a healthy scratch in each of the team's first three games, but head coach Sheldon Keefe has decided to bring the veteran defender in after going down 2-1 in the series. Brodie should be able to help out the team's penalty kill, which has been brutal so far. Timothy Liljegren will be the odd man out on Saturday and Brodie will take his spot on a pairing with Joel Edmundson.

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman T.J. Brodie will serve as a healthy scratch for Wednesday's road game versus the Washington Capitals. Blueliner Conor Timmins will enter the lineup in his place. Brodie skated 21:28 in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Philadelphia Flyers. The veteran's play has taken a notable dip in the 2023-24 season, as have his underlying numbers. He hasn't scored a goal in his last 99 games, has recorded 18 helpers, and picked up 139 blocked shots across 66 games this season. The Maple Leafs enter Wednesday's tilt sitting third in the Atlantic Division with a 38-20-9 record on the season.

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman T.J. Brodie (ribs) has been activated from Injured Reserve and is set to rejoin the lineup Sunday against Washington. He's been unavailable for the past 10 games due to a rib injury. Brodie has been limited to only 28 appearances this season, notching eight points with 36 shots, 22 hits and 47 blocks. He will be teaming up with Morgan Rielly on the first defensive pairing, while Conor Timmins is set to make room for him in the lineup.

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman T.J. Brodie (oblique) will be back in action Thursday against Los Angeles. He returns after sitting out 12 games with an oblique strain. Before going down with the injury, Brodie was able to contribute with two assists in 15 games, while also registering 17 hits and 20 blocks. Brodie is a skillful player, but he rejoins the lineup as a third-pairing defenseman, so it's safe to leave him on the waiver wire.

Toronto Maple Leafs defenseman T.J. Brodie will miss at least two weeks with an oblique injury. He was a late scratch for Saturday's matchup against Vancouver and now won't be available for a minimum of seven games. The team has placed him on Injured Reserve. According to general manager Kyle Dubas, the 32-year-old is dealing with a similar oblique injury that saw Toronto captain John Tavares miss a couple of weeks after getting injured in a preseason game. In Brodie, the team loses a big defensive presence, with him having registered 20 blocks and 17 hits in 15 outings this season. Offensively, he's been able to log two assists. Jordie Benn replaced Brodie on the first defensive pairing at the weekend and ended up celebrating his team debut with a goal. He is set to resume in the role for the time being. However, fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to get on the score sheet regularly, as the veteran has managed only 136 points in 596 career appearances.
