TJ Brodie - NHL News & Rumors

Nabs assist in loss Brodie posted an assist in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Ducks.

Impact Brodie had been held off the scoresheet over his last 10 appearances, and he also had a three-game stint in the press box during that drought. The defenseman helped out on Jason Dickinson's first-period tally. Brodie is at three assists, six shots on net, 20 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating over 16 contests this season. He's playing in a bottom-four role and has virtually no upside on a low-scoring team.

Pockets helper Thursday Brodie notched an assist and two blocked shots in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.

Impact Brodie set up Taylor Hall's opening tally in the first period. With two assists through five contests, Brodie is providing a little depth offense in a bottom-four role on the blue line. The veteran defenseman has added two shots on net, eight blocked shots and a minus-1 rating. He's long removed from being a perennial lock for 30 points, so his fantasy value is limited outside of formats that reward blocks.

Manages assist in win Brodie recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Oilers.

Impact Brodie helped out on a Connor Bedard goal in the second period, which stood as the game-winner. The helper was Brodie's first point in three games with the Blackhawks. The veteran defenseman has added one shot on goal, three blocked shots, one hit and a minus-2 rating. He's topped the 20-point mark in two of the last five seasons, but he was over 30 points in each of the six years before that, so it's unlikely he returns to his former glory on offense.

Inks two-year deal Brodie signed a two-year, $7.5 million contract with the Blackhawks on Monday.

Impact Brodie had a goal, 26 points, 40 PIM, 41 hits and 159 blocked shots in 78 regular-season contests with Toronto in 2023-24. He'll likely serve in a top-four capacity at even strength in 2024-25 but almost certainly won't be utilized on the power play.

Grabs assist in win Brodie picked up an assist in Monday's 3-2 overtime victory over the Penguins.

Impact Brodie set up Matthew Knies with a net-front feed early in the second period, tying the game 1-1. The 33-year-old blueliner has been uncharacteristically productive on the offensive end of late -- he now has assists in back-to-back games and six in his last seven contests. Brodie has yet to score a goal in 74 games this season, though he's up to 24 assists with 152 blocked shots while averaging 21:46 of ice time.

Rare point in win Brodie delivered an assist Saturday in a 3-2 win over Montreal.

Impact It was Brodie's first point in seven games and 17th assist in 63 games. He has no goals. Brodie isn't a fantasy player unless your league counts blocks (135 in 62 games).

Picks up two assists Brodie logged two assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Coyotes.

Impact This was Brodie's second multi-point effort of the season. He set up Bobby McMann's opening tally in the first period and William Nylander's breakaway goal out of the penalty box in the third. Brodie has had to play a larger role with the Maple Leafs' defense depleted by absences, but the pressure should recede a bit with Morgan Rielly set to return from a suspension Thursday. Brodie has 15 helpers, 32 shots on net, 117 blocked shots and a plus-22 rating over 54 appearances, surpassing the 14 points he posted in 2022-23.

Really struggling this season Brodie has two assists in his last four games.

Impact Brodie isn't really a fantasy guy, so the points aren't much of a help. His usual steady defensive game has been somewhat queasy this season, though, and that's a troubling trend for the Leafs. Brodie's turnover rate has jumped, and his defensive zone exit success has declined. More troubling, the Leafs have allowed 39 goals at 5-on-5 with Brodie on the ice (44 games), which is one more than they did in his 58 games last season. And he has really struggled when pressured by opposing forecheckers, coughing up the puck a lot more often and failing to get clean exits on dump ins. None of this reflects on his fantasy line, but it does influence the lines of his goaltenders. And it could get Brodie shifted off the top pairing and away from Morgan Rielly.

Rare point in win Brodie picked up an assist Saturday in a 7-4 win over the Wild.

Impact He had two shots Saturday and finished plus-1. Brodie is a pillar on the Leafs blue line, but he's more focused on stopping pucks than scoring with them. He'll play an important stabilizing role, especially for his netminders Ilya Samsonov and Joseph Woll. But, that doesn't show up on any stat line. Expect a 20-25 point season from Brodie.
