Barrie an Av/Bloodoff a Coyote/Cally a Wing

The Colorado Avalanche have selected Tyson Barrie in the 3rd round, 64th overall in the NHL draft.
Barrie was the Av's 4th player picked in the draft.
It's interesting that Barrie joins Saskatoon Blades d-man Stefan Elliott as players drafted by Colorado. The two are former teammates and were often compared when talking about offensive defenceman heading into the draft.

*** Update: Congrats to Evan Bloodoff. The younger brother of Rockets forward Lucas Bloodoff, was drafted today by the Phoenix Coyotes. Bloodoff was drafted in the 6th round.

Mitchell Callahan was picked by the Detroit Red Wings, also in the 6th round.
