Rockets name captain


The Kelowna Rockets have named 19 year-old defenseman Tyson Barrie as captain.
Barrie's assistants are Colton Jobke, Evan Bloodoff and Kevin Smith.
Barrie is a great choice. Solid player no question, but Barrie is a class act. He's a pro. He interviews like a pro, prepares like a pro and carries himself like a pro.
An 'A' for Jobke. What does that say about the 18 year old?
A second year guy getting a letter just speaks to the character this player shows both on and off the ice.
Great choice.
