    Default What's wrong with Barrett Hayton?

    The guy was drafted 5th overall and excelled at the World Juniors. Dobber has been high on him in his prospect rankings, yet he has yet to do anything really at both the NHL and AHL level. The Coyotes recently sent him back down to Tuscon, and he has no points in 8 games there. How long do we wait to call him a bust?

    A lot longer. He's 20. Relax. His breakout threshold is still about 200 games away - 3 to 4 years. I'm never sure why people expect players who scorch the WJC playing against other kids to come to the NHL right away and tear it up. That has happened but probably for 1 out every 100 players. Same for Zegras, Cozens etc. Maybe worry if he ends up down here playing for the ECHL Rapid City Rush, the next step down in the Coyotes organization.

    I've watched Hayton a few times - he's a legit talent.

    In 2-3 seasons, if he hasn't taken a step, then yeah, downgrade his upside.

    There's nothing wrong with Barrett Hayton. He was drafted about 10 spots too high and is currently a member of the Arizona Coyotes. Your expectations for him were probably much too high to begin with. He will probably be a 50 - 55 point guy when he fully develops which won't be for a few more years.

    He's young. Very young. And he plays for Arizona.
