Could This Unknown Penguins Prospect Shock Everyone and Secure an NHL Roster Spot Right Out of Camp?
And he’s been the standout at the past three Prospects Challenges for the Penguins, which includes four goals in three games this time around.
“I always believed in myself. I always had kind of that confidence about myself,” Hayes told Penguins’ team reporter Michelle Crechiolo. “But it’s just nice knowing I’m going to be here for a couple more years, hopefully longer.”
And if Hayes keeps up what he’s doing, his NHL future may not be too far away.
It will certainly be an uphill climb for Hayes to make the NHL roster out of training camp, as there will be a lot of young and veteran forwards competing for few spots on the roster. Forwards like Ville Koivunen, Tristan Broz, Filip Hallander, and Rutger McGroarty – currently on the shelf with an undisclosed injury – will also be vying for the same spots.
