Barrie's childhood winters were spent with his father, going in NHL locker rooms, meeting NHL stars and receiving the on-ice tutelage from his father. As such, his passport isn't short of stamps, as he put it: "I lived everywhere from Germany to Florida and California."

As the NHL draft approaches this summer, there's one place Barrie doesn't want to end up: in Tampa Bay on his father's team.

"I told him not to draft me because I don't think I'd ever hear the end of it," Barrie said. "If I end up in Tampa one day I wouldn't be against it but for the moment I think that I'd like to get drafted by a different team and do it on my own before I go there."
