In 17 games with the Wolf Pack a season ago, Harpur recorded five points (3 g, 2 a). That included a shorthanded goal in the club's 4-2 victory over the Hershey Bears on November 20th, 2022.
Following his recall to the Rangers, Harpur dressed in 42 games with the club, notching six points (1 g, 5 a).
