After 14 seasons in the NHL, defenseman Tyson Barrie has officially retired. Selected 64th by the Colorado Avalanche in 2009, he went on to play for the Toronto Maple Leafs, Edmonton Oilers, Nashville Predators, and lastly, the Calgary Flames.At 34, Barrie told Hockey Today on Friday that stepping away from the game felt like the right move."It's a decision in tandem with the 32 NHL teams. Felt pretty organic. There was probably a little bit opportunity out there for me to go, and take a peak, and take another crack at it,” Barrie said.“But, I put my heart & soul into last year, this season didn't go as I'd hoped in Calgary. It just felt organic to roll over into the next chapter of my life.”Looking back, he said that he was grateful for everything the league gave him and the experiences he shared with his hockey family.“I know it doesn't end when you retire. So, I'm just super grateful for the life I've got to lead this far," he added.Barrie’s career spanned 822 regular-season games, where he collected 508 points (110 goals, 398 assists) along with 21 points in the playoffs.He has now transitioned from hockey to entrepreneurship, launching Chilly Ones Beer, a premium beverage brand centered on connection and good times.
