Hayes scored three goals in AHL Rockford's 5-4 loss to San Diego on Saturday.
Hayes has six goals over his last seven games. He has just 12 goals and 22 points through 48 appearances this season, but he's found a stronger finishing touch lately. The third-round pick of the Blackhawks (2022) is still likely a year or more away from potentially contributing at the NHL level.

Rotowire
Hayes scored twice in AHL Rockford's 5-2 loss to Hershey on Sunday.

He had just 15 points in 50 regular-season outings in 2024-25, so this is progress, but it's unlikely to be enough to make a call-up imminent.
