Stars' Thomas Harley: Struggling lately
Rotowire
Harley has struggled lately, with head coach Rick Bowness declining to comment on the 20-year-old's performance after Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Kraken, per Saad Yousuf of The Athletic.
Harley has typically seen sheltered minutes and power-play time, but with the return of Miro Heiskanen, the latter has dried up. Defensively, Harley's not doing enough to warrant a regular spot in the lineup -- he's played in just three of the Stars' last eight games. He's mired in a nine-game point drought, and he's earned just two assists with 27 shots on net, 28 hits, 23 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating in 26 outings overall. Once Esa Lindell (upper body) and Jani Hakanpaa (undisclosed) are healthy, Harley will likely find himself as a healthy scratch or on the bus back to AHL Texas.
