Kevin Hayes Expected Back Tuesday After Lengthy Absence
6 years agoNew York Rangers center Kevin Hayes (upper body) is expected to return to the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers. He has been sidelined for the past 14 games due to an upper-body injury. When healthy he has been productive, posting 10 goals and 33 points with a plus-6 rating through 39 games. He returns just in time to showcase his talents for another organization, as he will be an unrestricted free agent at season's end, and the team is expected to move him. While the two sides haven't ruled out an extension, it's likely be will be playing his hockey elsewhere down the stretch. Either way, when healthy he has emerged as a solid fantasy option in most pools.
