Brodie And The Flames Visit Toronto

There will be some Flames supporters from Chatham-Kent in the stands when the Toronto Maple Leafs host Calgary tonight.

Flames defenceman and Chatham-native TJ Brodie says some of his family and friends are making the trip to watch him play.

"The support back home has always been great and I've been very fortunate to have that," says Brodie, who adds he'll be looking for revenge after the Leafs beat the Flames in their last meeting in Toronto in April. "That was my first time playing there last year... hopefully it's a better outcome for us."

Brodie says while he grew up a Detroit Red Wings fan, games in Toronto are special for him because the Flames only play there once a year.
