It's only a matter of time before Barrie and the Preds part ways with each other.
The question is whether it will come at the trade deadline, or in the off-season.
Pending UFA.
Cap hit $4.5M.
Same player he has always been. A mid-range '2-way/transitional D' who can quarterback a power-play. Leans distributor more than shooter. Average defensively.
In 35GP with the Preds this season he has averaged 18 minutes TOI - deployed at ES and PP - while contributing 1G-11A.
On a contending team he is likely a #5D more than a consistent top four at even strength.
