The Dallas Stars are going to sign free-agent forward prospect Tye Felhaber.



Two sources familiar with the situation told The Athletic that a deal is finalized and will likely be announced by the team soon.



Felhaber is a 20-year-old forward playing for the Ottawa 67’s in the OHL. He has 51 goals and 88 points in 50 games. He is on pace to become the first player in the OHL to score 70 goals in a season since John Tavares scored 72 during the 2006-07 season.



Felhaber, who was an undrafted free agent, had 31 goals and 70 points last season before making a major statistical jump this season with the first-place 67s. He has four games of pro experience —gained at the end of last season on a tryout contract with the Laval Rocket — but remained unsigned heading into his final OHL season.



Last month, Felhaber told the Canadian Press that he’d received interest from at least 20 NHL teams trying to sign him.
