Barrie (undisclosed) will not play on Tuesday.

Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar announced that Barrie will not be available tonight but did not indicate what is ailing the offensive-defenseman. Consider Barrie as day-to-day until the Avalanche provides a more detailed update. Mark Barberio will replace him in the lineup.

Barrie (hand) will return to the Avalanche lineup on Tuesday.

Barrie was listed as questionable after participating in Monday’s practice but he will be back in the Avalanche lineup tonight in Vancouver. Barrie has had a really nice season, collecting 27 points (4G / 23A) in 34 games, but might not re-claim his spot on the top PP right away. Barrie does however return with the Avs playing their best hockey of the season and should help to keep them rolling.

Barrie (hand) is a possibility to play as soon as Tuesday.

Barrie has missed the last 13 games with a broken hand but was on the ice for Monday’s practice and is nearing a return. Barrie’s status for Tuesday’s game is uncertain but he has not officially been ruled out. Monitor his status during Tuesday’s morning skate.

Barrie will undergo surgery on his broken hand and will miss 4-6 weeks.

Barrie broke his hand before the Christmas break and after being evaluated the Avalanche decided it’s best that he will undergo surgery. Barrie will be sidelined for at least one month, so don’t expect to see him until late-January/early-February.
