Thomas Harley Returns to Stars Lineup After 12-Game Absence

The defenseman's return reinforces Dallas's blue line ahead of Olympic selections.

Overview

  • Harley is set to play Tuesday night against the Winnipeg Jets, as first reported by Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Free Press.
  • The Stars had listed him week-to-week with a lower-body injury on Nov. 15, and he missed 12 games without being placed on injured reserve.
  • Through 18 games this season, Harley has one goal and 10 points while averaging 22:59 of ice time, third-most on the team behind Miro Heiskanen and Esa Lindell.
  • Dallas entered the Winnipeg game second in the Central Division with 45 points in 30 games, with Minnesota and Florida next on the schedule.
  • TSN’s Pierre LeBrun reported Team Canada has narrowed its Olympic pool to the low 30s, keeping Harley in consideration after his role in February’s 4 Nations Face-Off win.
