Martin Brodeur's days with the St. Louis Blues could be numbered.

Injured goaltender Brian Elliott practiced with the club Sunday. While Brodeur is penciled in to start Monday's game against the Colorado Avalanche, head coach Ken Hitchcock isn't ruling the former out of Tuesday's contest in Nashville.

Elliott has been out of the lineup since Nov. 25 with a lower-body, and was initially considered week-to-week, spurring the decision to sign Brodeur.

With Jake Allen also playing well, the Blues may soon be faced with decisions to make in the crease for the back half of the season.
