Stars' Thomas Harley Out Week-to-Week With Lower-Body Injury

Dallas turns to replacements with a strong record reducing the short-term risk.

Overview

  • Team officials announced the week-to-week designation on Saturday night after recent game-time decisions for the defenseman.
  • Reports indicate Harley had been playing through the lower-body issue before the update was made public.
  • Kyle Capobianco is expected to step in short term based on roster and cap considerations.
  • Lian Bichsel is slated for a larger role in the top four alongside Miro Heiskanen and Esa Lindell.
  • Harley has 10 points in 19 games after a 50-point season last year and signed a long-term extension earlier this season as Dallas holds a standings cushion during a hot stretch.
