Stars Blow 3-Goal Lead, But Harley Saves the Night | Episode 7-032 | January 27th, 2026

The Dallas Stars nearly give it away—but Thomas Harley delivers just in time.

Dallas blows a three-goal lead against the St. Louis Blues, spends the entire third period under pressure, and finally escapes with a 4–3 win thanks to a late goal from Thomas Harley. Ryan and James break down a game that felt far too close for comfort and why this win still raises serious questions about the Stars’ overall play.

In this episode:

• Thomas Harley’s clutch late goal and uneven night
• Jake Oettinger’s strong performance despite the collapse
• A passive third period that let St. Louis back in
• Power play success masking five-on-five issues
• Justin Hryckowian moving into a bigger role
• Mavrik Bourque doing everything right… except scoring

• Ongoing concerns about physicality and game management

Plus, we dive into Artemi Panarin trade rumors, what a potential rental could mean for Dallas, and how Tyler Seguin’s injury may force Jim Nill to make a bold move at the deadline.

The Stars won—but it didn’t feel like a statement.
