22 Tyson Barrie D

Barrie signed a three-year, $13.5 million contract with the Oilers on Wednesday, Ryan Rishaug of TSN.ca reports.

Barrie had one of his best seasons yet in 2020-21 with Edmonton, picking up eight goals, 40 helpers, 146 shots and a plus-5 rating while averaging 21:24 of ice time through 56 appearances. The 30-year-old blueliner will continue to quarterback the Oilers' top power-play unit next season, feeding pucks to the dynamic duo of Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, so there's no reason to believe Barrie won't be able to replicate his performance from a year ago in 2021-22.

Barrie was left off the protected list in advance of Wednesday's Expansion Draft.

Barrie is a pending unrestricted free agent, so he wasn't expected to be protected by the Oilers. The 29-year-old led all defensemen in points last year with 48 (in 56 games).
