Barrett Hayton News

Utah is battling through a four-game losing skid and will switch things up on Wednesday against the Anaheim Ducks, with Barrett Hayton and Brandon Tanev coming out of the lineup. The 25-year-old Hayton has seen prime offensive deployment lately, including some reps on the team's top powerplay unit, but still only has five points (3G / 2A) in 24 games this season.

Hayton was a surprise scratch on Friday, with the Predators not announcing his absence prior to warmups. Kevin Rooney will draw into the lineup in his place.

Hayton battled an undisclosed injury through the latter half of the preseason and has missed Utah's first two games of the season, but looks set to play on Monday against the Chicago Blackhawks. The 25-year-old Hayton has shown glimpses of strong productivity but has lacked consistency. He scored 46 points (20G / 26A) in 82 games last season.

Hayton battled an undisclosed injury through the latter half of the preseason and will not play in Utah's season opener on Thursday against the Colorado Avalanche. The 25-year-old Hayton has shown glimpses of strong productivity but has lacked consistency. He scored 46 points (20G / 26A) in 82 games last season.

Hayton enjoyed a second-half breakout in 2023, putting high expectations on him entering 2024. A slow start and an injury limited him to just 10 points (3G / 7A) in 33 games, but he'll be an integral part of the Coyotes' top-9 in the 2024-25 season. He's previously shown outstanding chemistry with Clayton Keller and Nick Schmaltz, so he could be the favourite to win the top-line job out of camp, which would make him a post-hype breakout candidate this season.

Hayton was a late scratch on Tuesday due to a lower-body injury and unfortunately is expected to miss more time than originally planned as he is out longer than a day-to-day prognosis while he continues to get tested by team doctors. The 23-year-old has had a season to forget as its been riddled with injuries which has led to very disappointing production with his three goals, 10 points, 66 SOG, 26 PIMs and -13 plus/minus in 33 games played.

Hayton has begun to find productivity lately but is unlikely to play on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild. In his last six games, Hayton has scored four points (2G / 2A) after scoring only two points (0G / 2A) in his previous 11.

Hayton has not played since mid-November and will make his long-awaited return to the lineup on Thursday. Before his injury, Hayton had four points (2G / 2A) in his last five games after being held without a single point in his previous 11.

Hayton has not played since mid-November but appears to be nearing a return to the lineup. Before his injury, Hayton had four points (2G / 2A) in his last five games after being held without a single point in his previous 11.

Hayton has been placed on the injured reserve Saturday and will miss 4-6 weeks. Hayton scored a goal for the Coyotes despite exiting the game with an upper-body injury after playing only 7:57 time-on-ice. The Coyotes finished the game down two forwards as Matias Maccelli also exited the game but was more fortunate than Hayton with his post-game prognosis, as he is not expected to miss much (if any) time. Hayton had four points (2G / 2A) in his last five games after being held without a single point in his first 11.

The Coyotes have recalled Jan Jenik from Tuscon (AHL) as a forward replacement for Hayton, who will miss 4-6 weeks.

It couldn't have come at a worse time for Hayton, who was finally finding his stride after going pointless in his first 11 games. Hayton has registered four points in his last five games, including a goal in Thursday's game in Columbus prior to leaving due to the injury. We should expect to receive an update on Hayton's injury and a possible timeline for his recovery in the coming days.

Hayton was the No.5 overall pick in 2018 and has 31 points (13G / 18A) in 94 career NHL games, including 24 points (10G / 14A) in 60 games a season ago. With limited competition for minutes down the middle in Arizona, Hayton could be their No.1 option between Clayton Keller and Nick Schmaltz in 2022-23.

Hayton will play for the first time since January 6th and returns to the lineup with six points (2G / 4A) in 26 games this season. It's not clear who Hayton will play with in his return but he figures to play a top-6 role with power-play usage.

Hayton suffered a hand injury vs. the Blackhawks on Thursday and will require "minor" surgery. Hayton is expected to miss at least five weeks, so he'll be out of the lineup until mid-to-late February.
