Hayton recorded a pair of assists and three shots on goal in Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Blackhawks.

Hayton has gone nine games without a goal, but he's racked up four assists over his last six contests. The 23-year-old center is seeing middle-six usage at the moment, and his recent contributions on offense should be enough to keep him in that role. He's at 10 points, 66 shots on net and a minus-13 rating in 33 games this season, well off the pace that saw him put up 43 points in 82 games a year ago.
