Draft Selection: 64th overall
"Son of former NHLer and WHL great Len Barrie, Tyson helped lead his team to a WHL Championship and the Memorial Cup tournament, recording 18 points (4-14-18) and a plus-18 rating in 22 playoff games. Barrie put up an impressive 52 points in 68 games. I had the fortune to watch Barrie on several occasions, most
recently during their triumph over the Calgary Hitmen in the WHL finals. Barrie
displayed lightning-like acceleration and speed, as well as being for agile. He
did look kind of small out there and these are always concerns for defenseman at
the next level. There was no denying his offensive prowess, however, and he
displays the hockey intelligence that bodes well for success in the big
leagues."
Avalanche Director of Amateur Scouting Rick Pracey“Tyson is an instinctive hockey player. He has the ability to carry the puck up ice, navigate his way through zones and make things happen from the back end. He was another player that fit the criteria of acquiring skill on the back end.”
