Avery Hayes News: Called up from minors

Hayes was recalled from AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton on Thursday.

Hayes could be in line to make his NHL debut against the Sabres on Thursday if Noel Acciari (illness) is unable to play. In 31 minor-league tilts with the Baby Pens, the 23-year-old winger has notched 13 goals and 10 helpers while also racking up 41 PIM. If Hayes does play Thursday, he will likely slot into a bottom-six role.
