Hayes: 100 Career Goals

With a 25 goal campaign last season, Kevin Hayes is only 27 goals away from his 100th goal. Hayes was recently just signed on a one year contract, and this season is the year he will make his money. In a crucial contract year with not only his position on the Rangers at risk, but a small truckload of money as well. Hayes will look to improve his career high goal total and hit that 100 goal plateau.

In an offseason where his position on the team seems in danger, Hayes could have an explosive season proving that he is a great fit in New York, or he could fail to hit those high water marks and find himself getting his 100th goal somewhere else.

The hope is that Kevin Hayes finds his complete game and makes a bright case to stay in New York as a Ranger.
