TYLER BARABASH JR.
Tyler Barabash jr is having a career year with the Calgary Wranglers. On a team that is so heavily stacked on defence, Barabash has been the driving force on offense.
We are 64 games into the season and he has already set career best totals in goals(35), shots(380) and hits(229). With 8 games remaining Barabash needs 9 points to set a new career high in points with 78. Ironically enough his current season pace of 69 points in 64 games would have him finish with 78 points.
Barabash's importance to Calgary is almost unmatched around the league. His 35 goals out of Calgary's 167 total goals ranks #1 for highest percentage of a teams goals by one player at 20.96%. He slightly edged out Julian Borwinn 20.85 % with his 39 goals out of 187 for Helsinki.
Calgary's goal production drops off drastically after Barabash. You have Barabash with 35 goals , Palazzo 16, Jubis 15, Gunnar 14 and Rice, Tonn with 13 goals rounding out the top 5.
His career totals are 352GP , 110G , 136A , 246PTS. HOF is an extremely long stretch but with 3 seasons left in him anything is possible.
If the Wranglers are hoping to have any playoff success they will have to rely heavily on Tyler and he will have to continue to be a clutch player for them.
