Instead of just giving fans a preview of what’s to come this season, the Dallas Stars’ 2019 preseason also gave fans a preview of what the future has in store.
A number of the team’s top prospects suited up for the Stars during preseason action, but it was the play of newcomer Thomas Harley that specifically got people talking. The organization’s first-round pick, 18th overall, in this past June’s NHL entry draft, Harley displayed his mobile, puck-moving style of hockey and showed composure well beyond his years while going up against NHL competition. Despite being sent down to the OHL for the 2019-20 season, don’t be surprised if Harley makes the jump to Dallas in 2020-21.
