Justin Barron's Player Profile

Bob McKenzie -TSN - Sept. 16th: "At almost 6-foot-3 and with great mobility and smarts, the Halifax Moosehead defenceman plays a good all-around game. He’s not nearly as dynamic offensively, or high reward/high risk as Drysdale, but what’s not to like about a big, smart, mobile puck mover who can skate or pass the puck out of trouble and plays a solid defensive game as wel."

Craig Button -TSN - Sept. 16th: "Very smart, calm and poised defenceman who plays all situations in the game. Very good puck skills. With his sense, the puck finds its way to the best spots. Handles the big minutes."

Cam Robinson - Dobber Prospects - Sept. 2nd: "An offensive rearguard who can create at a high-rate during even-strength play. Brings plus-speed and awareness to the offensive side of the game."

Ryan Kennedy - The Hockey News - Aug. 20th: "Pretty close to Drysdale in the ‘D’ rankings, Barron is also an excellent skater and I thought he looked pretty confident as one of the youngest Canadian players at the WJSS."

Scott Wheeler - The Athletic - Aug. 19th: "He’s got the athleticism, he shoots right and he’s a mature defender for his age. But he’s also on the older side of the draft and his offensive tools don’t wow me, though they are all strong."

Steve Kournianos - Sporting News - July 31st: "Barron is a swift-skating puck mover with incredible poise and maturity. Not only can he successfully break out on his own, but he also enters the offensive zone with the confidence that he'll connect with a teammate for a scoring opportunity."

Chris Peters - ESPN - June 27th: "A good-sized right-shot defenseman with the ability to make plays all over the ice, Barron is an intriguing talent. He was a key defender for Halifax in a strong season that ended in the QMJHL finals and Memorial Cup."
