Calgary Flames forward Sam Bennett is week-to-week with an upper-body injury, according to Sportsnet’s Derek Wills.

Bennett missed the Flames’ last game, a resounding 6-0 defeat at the hands of the Vegas Golden Knights on Sunday.

The 23-year-old forward has three goals and two assists in 20 games this season.

Wills also reported that defencemen Travis Hamonic and T.J. Brodie won’t suit up for the Flames when they face the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday.

Hamonic is dealing with a lower-body injury, while Brodie is still undergoing testing after collapsing during practice last week.
