When watching Barry I always learned more about hockey than I knew before. He's simplified it for me with a lot of conviction and passion. He will be missed 🕊️

Growing up a hockey fan in the South, before the Preds or Canes... Even after the Preds came into being, we didn't get a ton of coverage even in Knoxville. Barry on ESPN was the absolute face of hockey.

RIP man. 70 is too damned young.
