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

Lone goal in Tuesday's loss
DDallas Stars
January 21, 2025
Harley scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Hurricanes.
ANALYSIS
Harley finished a feed from Wyatt Johnston to tie the game at 1-1 midway through the third period, but the Hurricanes retook the lead for good just 24 seconds later. Through 11 outings in January, Harley has racked up three goals, three assists and 27 shots on net. The defenseman has seven tallies, 16 helpers, 102 shots on net, 60 blocked shots and a plus-21 rating through 45 contests overall.

NHL DFS Picks: DraftKings Plays and Strategy for Sunday, January 19
3 days ago
Wyatt Johnston has tallied 18 points in his last 16 games. Either as a one-off or Stars stack option, he is a solid choice for Sunday's DraftKings NHL DFS slate.
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
Expected to sign two-year pact
DDallas Stars
September 11, 2024
Harley and the Stars are working on a two-year contract that should get done ahead of training camp, Sean Shapiro of EP Rinkside reports Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Harley's contract negotiation is likely complicated by the fact that while he had a solid 2023-24 campaign, 47 points in 79 regular-season contests, it marks his only real long-term NHL action, having played a combined 40 games in the two years prior. Still, it seems unlikely the two sides are going to let this linger into the season, with Shapiro expecting the deal ultimately to come in under a $4 million cap hit.
