Barrie notched an assist, two shots on goal and a minus-3 rating in Thursday's 8-4 loss to the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

Barrie has been in the lineup for six straight games as the Predators navigate multiple injuries on defense. He has three assists in that span, as well as eight blocked shots and 13 shots on net. The 32-year-old has been scratched more often than not over the last three months. He's at 15 points, 65 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and a minus-10 rating through 41 appearances.

Barrie (healthy scratch) was almost dealt to the Flames at the trade deadline, but ultimately a deal did not get done, Emma Lingan of The Hockey News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barrie was out of the lineup for the 11th straight game Saturday against the Blue Jackets, and he has played in only five games since the end of December. With just one goal and 11 assists in 35 games this season, Barrie has to be seen as a failed experiment by the Preds since they acquired him in the Mattias Ekholm trade last year. Barrie is expected to become a free agent in July and will look to ply his trade with another team next season.

Barrie recorded a power-play assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

Barrie set up a Roman Josi tally in the second period. Those two defensemen were paired together Saturday, a rarity considering Barrie was a healthy scratch for four of the Predators' six games before the All-Star break. His helper Saturday was his first point since Dec. 15. The 32-year-old is at 12 points, 48 shots on net, 36 blocked shots and a minus-7 rating through 33 outings.

EDGE Analysis

EDGE Analysis

Barrie has a goal and 11 points in 30 contests this season. He hasn't played since Dec. 23, and it's not clear when he might be available. Barrie will likely get ample power-play ice time once he's healthy, but the 32-year-old will probably be limited to the third pairing at even strength.

EDGE Analysis

Barrie has a goal and 11 points in 30 outings in 2023-24. He was last in the lineup Dec. 23. When he's ready to return, Barrie could challenge Luke Schenn for a spot on the third pairing. It also wouldn't be a surprise if the 32-year-old Barrie spent some time as a healthy scratch.

EDGE Analysis

Barrie, who last played Dec. 23, has a goal and 11 points in 30 outings with Nashville in 2023-24. When he's healthy, the 32-year-old defenseman might push Luke Schenn out of the lineup, though it's also possible that Barrie will occasionally be scratched even once he's available. Nashville made the offensive blueliner a healthy scratch four times in the span of seven games from Dec. 2-12.
