Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: First hat trick in Utah history
Rotowire
Hayton had a hat trick consisting of two power-play goals and an even-strength tally in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Kings.
Hayton will enter the Utah trivia books, as he is the first player with a hat trick in franchise history -- the Hockey Club didn't inherit the Coyotes' history and is officially considered an expansion franchise. Hayton was perhaps an unlikely candidate for the feat, considering he entered Saturday on an eight-game goal drought and has yet to hit the 20-goal mark in any season of his career. The 24-year-old center is on a career-best pace with 15 goals, 32 points, 102 shots on net and a plus-4 rating across 57 appearances this season.

Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: Two apples in win
Rotowire
Hayton provided two helpers and took four shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 win over the Flyers.
Both of Hayton's assists came in regulation before Utah would eventually win the game in overtime. The 24-year-old center has 17 assists, 29 points and 93 shots on net across 53 games this season. Hayton has been showing steady improvement in the shot department, firing two attempts or more in 12 of his last 14 outings. While it has led to only five goals, his spot with the first unit on Utah's power play makes him a strong waiver-wire target while Logan Cooley (lower body) remains out.

Rotowire
Hayton notched a power-play assist, four shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets.
Logan Cooley (lower body) is out indefinitely, but at least for now, Hayton will remain in a second-line role rather than moving up to center the top line. Hayton held his own on the second line in January with 11 points over 14 contests to get his season back on track. Overall, the 24-year-old center has 27 points (three on the power play), 86 shots on net, 27 blocked shots, 25 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 51 appearances.

Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: Dishes two assists
Rotowire
Hayton produced two assists and four shots on goal in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Rangers.

The center spent much of the campaign on the first line, but over the last week, he has been on the second line while Logan Cooley plays between Clayton Keller and Nick Schmaltz.

Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: Tallies go-ahead goal
Rotowire
Hayton scored a goal on three shots and added two PIM in Friday's 2-1 in over the Sharks.
Hayton was demoted from the top line Friday, instead playing on the second line. It still worked out, as he scored with 1:32 left in the third period, and his goal stood as the game-winner. Hayton has just two points over his last seven outings and a total of 18 points, 59 shots on net, 26 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating through 41 contests overall. Moving down the lineup isn't great for his fantasy value, though that could change if he picks up the scoring pace in the second half of the campaign.

Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: Gets on scoresheet with assist
Rotowire

Despite his struggles, he's still seeing top-line minutes at even strength, though his power-play time has largely dried up. Hayton is at 13 points, 47 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 31 appearances, a marginally better showing than his 10 points in 33 outings last year.

Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: Logs assist Tuesday
Rotowire
Hayton posted an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Canadiens.
Some lineup shuffling in November has derailed what looked to be a breakout season for Hayton. His helper Tuesday snapped a seven-game slump, and he's managed just two assists over 11 contests this month. He's also out of the power-play mix, which won't help his numbers. The 24-year-old center has nine points, 40 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 22 appearances. He should easily surpass the 10-point effort he mustered in 33 games in 2023-24, but a return to the level of his 43-point 2022-23 campaign is going to require a few warm stretches to combat his recent cold spell.

Hockey Club's Barrett Hayton: Produces helper Thursday
Rotowire
Hayton logged an assist and won 13 of 16 faceoffs in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Blues.
Hayton rejoined Clayton Keller and Nick Schmaltz on the top line Thursday after ceding the first-line spot to Logan Cooley in recent games. The helper was Hayton's second point over his last four outings, though this improved stretch follows a five-game slump. He's at eight points, 32 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 14 contests, and there's still the foundation of a breakout campaign in place despite Hayton's recent struggles.
