Calgary Flames Sign Tyson Barrie to Contract

Tyson Barrie, a 33-year-old defenseman, has signed a one-year, $1.25 million contract with the Calgary Flames after impressing during a professional tryout. He previously played for the Nashville Predators, where he recorded 15 points in 41 games last season. Barrie, known for his offensive capabilities, brings a wealth of experience with 809 NHL games under his belt and is expected to contribute to the Flames’ power-play units. His long-standing relationship with Flames' head coach Ryan Huska, dating back to their time with the Kelowna Rockets, may play a role in his integration into the team. Barrie will likely compete for a spot on the Flames' blueline as they prepare for the upcoming season opener against the Vancouver Canucks.
