Thomas Harley

23-Year-Old DefensemanD
Dallas Stars
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Harley is the latest success story for the Stars' scouting department, as he broke out to the tune of 15 goals and 47 points in 79 regular-season contests last year. He started the campaign as a question mark to be in the lineup, and he ended it in a top-pairing role alongside Miro Heiskanen. Harley's 10.4 shooting percentage is a red flag -- as a defenseman, he's unlikely to sustain that level of production -- but what he loses in goals should be made up for with assists, blocked shots and a strong plus-minus. Experience will also help, as the 23-year-old blueliner appeared to fade late with just one goal and 16 points over 39 regular-season and postseason contests from the start of March. He'll be a popular sleeper pick given his role and his potential, so expect to pay a premium for Harley on draft day. Read Past Outlooks

Returning Wednesday
DDallas Stars
April 16, 2025
Harley (rest) is back in the lineup Wednesday versus the Predators, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Harley was out for two games to rest before the playoffs. The return of Tyler Seguin made Lian Bichsel and Alex Petrovic cap casualties for the season finale, but Harley is able to suit up and should see top-four minutes with power-play time.

The Week Ahead: The Fantasy Playoffs
24 days ago
The busyness of a team's remaining schedule has a big impact on the value of its players in the fantasy playoffs, something which benefits the Kings more than any other team at the moment.
Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2020
While he was limited to just two assists in six-regular season games, Harley stepped up and claimed a full-time gig in the playoffs, where he had nine points in 19 outings. If he can produce at a 35-40-point pace, he'll immediately be the Stars' second best defenseman in fantasy, and there's little concern about where his defensive game is at. He will still play second fiddle to Miro Heiskanen, but the Stars are a team that has enough balance up front that no defenseman is too far removed from talent. Harley has some serious sleeper upside in redraft formats entering his age-22 season, though he will need to prove himself over the course of a full NHL campaign to cash in on what appears to be a lot of promise.
Harley had another standout campaign with OHL Mississauga in 2019-20, producing 18 goals and 57 points in 59 contests. The 19-year-old blueliner also made his NHL debut during the postseason round robin versus the Avalanche. Harley, a first-round pick from 2019, is still junior-eligible, which makes it seem unlikely he'll see much action with the parent club outside of the preseason in 2020-21. However, a standout performance in training camp could put him in the conversation with Andrej Sekera and Mark Pysyk for a third-pairing job. Most likely, Harley is still a year or two away from being a factor for the Stars, though he appears to have all the makings of a high-upside blueliner for fantasy purposes.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
On standby for tournament
DDallas Stars
February 13, 2025
Harley is in Boston to serve as a standby option on defense following Shea Theodore's arm injury in Team Canada's 4 Nations Face-Off opener, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Canada is left with six defenseman, and while the current tournament rules would require three injuries to skaters before a substitution to the roster is allow, Johnston's description of the rules as "fluid" suggests a change may be allowed. In any case, the 23-year-old Harley appears to be the next man up should one be required. Harley has 29 points over 53 games with the Stars this season.
