Playing career

Born in Keswick, Ontario, Hanley played Junior A with the Newmarket Hurricanes before spending four seasons with the UMass Minutemen ice hockey of the NCAA.[1] Following his college career, he landed his first professional contract with the American Hockey League's Portland Pirates.[1] He spent two seasons (2013–2015) in Portland including a short demotion to the ECHL's Gwinnett Gladiators.[1]

In the summer of 2015, Hanley signed a two-way contract with the Montreal Canadiens organization and reported to the team's AHL affiliate: the St. John's IceCaps.[2] Following a string of injuries to Canadiens' defencemen, Hanley was recalled and played his first NHL game on March 20, 2016. He contributed with his first two assists two days later.[3]

On July 1, 2017, having left the Canadiens as a free agent, Hanley agreed to a one-year, two-way contract with the Arizona Coyotes.[4] In the 2017–18 season, Hanley was initially re-assigned to AHL affiliate, the Tucson Roadrunners. He was later recalled through the Coyotes suffering from injuries to appear in 5 games over the course of the season with the Coyotes.

On July 1, 2018, Hanley as a free agent signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Dallas Stars.[5]
