Defenseman Tyson Barrie has signed a one-year, $1.25 million contract with the Calgary Flames. The Flames snapped up Barrie after he spent the training camp with the team on a tryout basis. As an offensive defenseman, Barrie has produced 505 points (109 goals, 396 assists) in 809 career games. However, he's coming off a poor year with the Nashville Predators, which saw Barrie register only one goal and 14 assists in 41 games. The deal could be a steal for Calgary if Barrie finds some of his old magic. He should at least provide some juice to a power play that ranked 26th in the league last season. 210 of Barrie's 505 career points have come with the man advantage.
Nashville Predators defenseman Tyson Barrie will be back in the lineup for Wednesday's meeting with the Kings. The veteran has been only a bit-part player for Nashville this season and has also battled an upper-body injury recently, which has limited Barrie to one appearance this month. He has featured 31 times across the season, posting one goal and 10 assists. Barrie's fantasy value has plummeted in 2023-24, but he will be an intriguing fantasy option on Wednesday, as Nashville plans to use him on the first power-play unit.
Nashville Predators defenseman Tyson Barrie is set to be a healthy scratch on Saturday versus the Rangers. We might even have seen the last of him in a Predators uniform, as Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman has reported that the team has given permission to Barrie to talk to other teams regarding a move elsewhere. The 32-year-old is a pending unrestricted free agent. Barrie joined Nashville in the middle of the 2022-23 campaign in a trade that sent Mattias Ekholm to Edmonton. He's posted nine points in 22 games this season with 31 shots on goal, 22 blocks, and a minus-five rating.
Nashville Predators defenseman Tyson Barrie took his point streak to four games in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Toronto, finishing the contest with a goal and a power-play assist. Barrie's scoring surge has coincided with Roman Josi's (upper body) absence, with the Nashville captain missing his fifth consecutive game Sunday. Josi is considered day-to-day and could return any minute, but until that happens, Barrie will continue to get extra burn, particularly on the power play. He now boasts three goals and nine points in 14 games as a Predator, and Barrie has amassed 52 points in 75 games across the whole campaign.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie lit the lamp twice as the team notched a 4-2 road victory against Florida on Saturday. He netted his side's first two goals of the game, one of which came on the power play. Barrie is a prolific player with the man advantage and now boasts seven power-play points for the campaign. He's on three goals and nine assists overall, sitting comfortably in the top ten in defensemen scoring. Barrie will enter the next matchup against L.A. having bagged eight points in his past seven appearances.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie will be in the lineup in Game 2 against the Flames on Friday despite missing the morning skate. It's been reported that Barrie is feeling a bit under the weather and that's the reason why he wasn't on the ice in the morning. The 30-year-old had a great finish to the regular season with 10 points in April, but he hasn't made a big impact offensively in the playoffs, logging only three points in eight games. Barrie skates on the third defensive pairing but sees time on the top power-play unit. Edmonton has had a solid 30.4-percent power play in the playoffs, so Barrie actually finds himself in a good situation to boost his scoring numbers.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie (upper body) has been activated from Injured Reserve and is set to re-enter the lineup on Saturday against Tampa Bay. The 30-year-old rearguard has missed three games. Barrie, who's notched 23 points in 49 outings this season, skated on the third defensive pairing with Philip Broberg at the morning skate, and he'll resume his duties on the top power-play unit as well. Winger Josh Archibald (myocarditis) has also been active from Injured Reserve and will make his season debut on the fourth line.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie (upper body) will sit out Saturday's contest against Montreal. He was injured in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to Chicago and hasn't recovered in time. The team has his status officially at day-to-day, although there have also been reports of him possibly missing up to 10 days. With Kris Russell (undisclosed) and Oscar Klefbom (shoulder) already on the shelf, Edmonton's blue line will be without a lot of quality and experience. In Barrie, the team has also lost a big piece of the first power-play unit.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie had his night cut short by an upper-body injury on Thursday against Chicago. He managed to pick up a power-play assist in the opening frame but took only eight shifts in the game. Barrie had just started to heat up following a rough offensive spell, picking up six points in nine games. The extent of Barrie's injury is unknown at present, and he should be considered day-to-day. His absence is set to open up minutes on the first defensive pairing and the first power-play unit. The Oilers are back in action on Saturday against Montreal.
Tyson Barrie Converts on Power Play, Scores Game-Winner
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie kicked off the scoring on Saturday, slipping the puck past Connor Hellebuyck to score what would turn out to be the game-winning goal in a 3-0 win over Winnipeg. Barrie's tally came on the power play with assists from Connor McDavid and Kailer Yamamoto. Skating on Edmonton's top power-play unit is the definition of prime deployment, as the Oilers are converting on 27 percent of their power-play opportunities, which is the third-best rate in the league. Edmonton also has the second-highest power-play goals scored per game rate at 0.88 goals per game. Edmonton only has two games this upcoming week though so Barrie might be a better target in daily formats this week.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie recorded four assists to help lead the way as his team blew out the Calgary Flames 7-3 on Wednesday night. The 29-year-old, who was listed as a game-time decision before the game due to an upper-body injury, showcased no signs of pain in this one - posting three power-play points, a plus-two rating and four shots in 18:13 of ice time in the contest. With the big offensive night, Barrie jumped into the top spot among all NHL defensemen in points (28) and assists (24). The puck-distributing blueliner has proved to be an excellent fit in his first season in Edmonton and has evolved into a must-start option in all fantasy formats.
Edmonton Oilers defenseman Tyson Barrie buried his second goal of the campaign as his team earned a 3-2 victory over the Ottawa Senators on Tuesday. Barrie's third-period tally, the game-winning goal, was his ninth point (two goals, seven assists) in his past seven contests. After collecting just two assists in his first eight games with the Oilers, Barrie has been one of the hottest rearguards in the league as of late - proving his offensive prowess at both even-strength and on the man advantage (four power-play points). With his ice time (21:46 per-game) and constant exposure to forwards Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, the 29-year-old should be a lock in starting fantasy lineups each night he takes the ice.
