Hayes skated in 33 games in the 2017-18 season, scoring three goals and collecting six assists while averaging 11:53 of ice time.
Unfortunately for Hayes, 23 of his 33 games came before Dec. 16, and he didn't appear in any of New Jersey's last 20 games save for the season finale against Washington, when the playoffs were already clinched. Nonetheless, he was able to lay the body when he was on the ice, notching 50 hits, and wasn't much of a defensive liability with a minus-2 on the year.
