Talent Analysis
Hayes has a big body, works hard and plays very well in a team concept. With his size, you expect Hayes to be a punishing power forward. While he's not going to shy away from the tough stuff, he is really known for his hands and work around the net. He is a big, strong, forward who is learning to use his power as he continues to grow into his frame. He is also noted as fast skater with very big and long strides.
Future
Hayes will report to Boston College and play for the Eagles starting in fall 2008. He should be expected to play at least into his junior year, as he continues to grow and mature into his body.
