Last season with the Coyotes, Barrett Hayton scored 10 goals in 60 games. All career high along with the 14 assist.

Originally being drafted in 2018 by Arizona, it is amazing news to keep the young player full of potential. This team is looking to build around the core they have and Hayton is definitely a part of that.
