Players to Watch
Tyson Barrie joined the Wranglers roster on Jan. 24 from Flames on a conditioning loan and is looking to make the most out of his time with the Wranglers.
“The goal is just to come down and get my legs, get my timing and just continue to be ready for an opportunity if one shakes out, ” shared Barrie following his first practice with the Wranglers on Jan. 24.
“I want to be ready in case something happens and I have to step in and be a difference-maker. This is a good way to come in and get some reps.”
“It’s nice to get out there with the guys and get in the mix.”
