The defenseman has missed seven games with a hamstring injury sustained against the San Jose Sharks on Feb. 4. Treliving said Giordano has been skating on his own and making progress.

The Flames host the Boston Bruins on Friday (9 p.m. ET; ESPN+, SN1, SNE, SNO, SNP, NESN, NHL.TV) and then begin their trip at the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday. Calgary plays at the Boston Bruins on Tuesday, the Nashville Predators on Feb. 27, the Tampa Bay Lightning on Feb. 29 and the Florida Panthers on March 1.

"You wouldn't bring him unless there's a possibility of him playing," Treliving said of the Flames captain. "As far as treatment, he's going to get treatment on the road. … I'm not trying to be cute with timelines, you just don't know. You're certainly moving in the right direction.

"The fact that he's been on the ice the last two days and pushing hard is a good sign. We'll see where he gets to tomorrow and see where he's at tomorrow, not playing but seeing how he feels after two skates and take it day by day."

Giordano, who won the Norris Trophy voted as the best defenseman in the NHL last season, leads Flames defensemen with 27 points (five goals, 22 assists) in 54 games this season.

Treliving said defenseman Travis Hamonic remains week to week with an upper-body injury sustained against the Vancouver Canucks on Feb. 8.

With the NHL Trade Deadline on Feb. 24, Treliving said the health of his defensemen will affect how he approaches the next few days.

"We're going get both guys back, it's just when," Treliving said. "Does it affect what we're doing the next couple days? You're always yes and no; that would be the best way to describe it. We're looking to see if there's ways to help us that makes sense. Chasing it with high prices for rental players, I don't know if that's a direction that we're in favor of. But if there's ways to help us we want to try to do it. Next few days will determine that."
