Harley Hopes To Keep Current Level Down The Stretch

The NHL season is drawing to a close and the playoffs will soon be upon us. The Dallas Stars, like all prospective Stanley Cup winning teams, aim to have their biggest wins ahead of them. With 10 games remaining on the schedule, Dallas will look to polish any areas of their game going forward. For players currently riding high, one can hope that they stay hot long enough to propel the Stars into the Stanley Cup Final.

One such player to fit the bill has been defenseman Thomas Harley. The young blue liner has been one of the hottest players on the team since the resumption of the NHL season following the 4 Nations Face-off. Through the last 17 games, Harley has 18 points, six of which coming via goal. The 23-yr old defenseman has tied a career-high in goals and points. The Stars will hope that Harley will continue to make a difference not only with his scoring, but also with his physical play. Despite playing only 119 games, Harley has demonstrated a defensive prowess that is often only seen in grizzled veterans. 

The Stars will kick off their 10-game stretch with a matchup against the Seattle Kraken on Saturday. Thomas Harley aims to continue his high level of play, and look to kickstart a point streak after being held scoreless in his last outing against the Flames. Puck drop is scheduled for 10:30pm CST and can be watched on KHN, KONG, and Victory+.
