Mammoth match Devils' offer sheet to Barrett Hayton, sign him for $4.775 million for next season

The Utah Mammoth have matched New Jersey's offer sheet to Barrett Hayton and signed the 26-year-old center to a $4.775 million contract for next season

Signs one-year deal Hayton (upper body) signed a one-year, $4.775 million contract with Utah on Wednesday.

Impact Hayton had previously agreed to an offer sheet with the Devils, but the Mammoth agreed to match the deal to retain the forward's services. In 67 regular-season games last year, the Ontario native notched 10 goals and 15 assists, including six power-play points. If Hayton can stay healthy, he should be capable of getting back to being a 20-goal, 40-point producer for Utah in 2026-27.

JULY 2 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM

Signs offer sheet with New Jersey Hayton (upper body) agreed to terms on an offer sheet from the Devils for a one-year, $4.775 million contract, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports Wednesday.

Impact The Mammoth have seven days to match the offer or accept a second-round pick as compensation. The 26-year-old Hayton is coming off a down year in which he had 10 goals, 15 assists, 119 shots on net, 54 PIM, 34 hits and 29 blocked shots over 67 regular-season games. He was out of the lineup for the last 10 regular-season contests and five of the Mammoth's six playoff games due to his upper-body issue. If Utah matches, Hayton is still looking at a reduced role in 2026-27, as the Mammtoh acquired Vincent Trocheck and Anders Lee on Wednesday with the expectation that they'll fill top-six roles.

Out of action Hayton (upper body) won't play Friday in Game 6 versus the Golden Knights, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

Impact Hayton played in Game 5 but is still managing pain due to the upper-body injury. The 25-year-old won't be in the lineup while the Mammoth are trying to keep their season alive, and if that effort fails, he won't be able to play again until the 2026-27 preseason.

MAY 2 • ROTOWIRE

Officially deemed game-time call Hayton (upper body) was classified as a game-time decision ahead of Game 6 versus Vegas on Friday, Cole Bagley of KSL Sports reports.

Impact According to Bagley, the 25-year-old Hayton is managing pain from his upper-body injury, so fantasy managers may want to expect him to carry a game-time call designation before the next several contests. In his first postseason appearance in Game 5 on Wednesday, the Ontario native didn't get his name on the scoresheet while registering two shots, one block and a minus-1 rating in 12:49 of ice time.

Making return in Game 5 Hayton (upper body) is in the lineup for Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Golden Knights, per the NHL media site.

Impact Hayton was described as unlikely to play Wednesday, but he clearly made enough progress after the morning skate to draw in. The 25-year-old is slated to be on the third line for the Mammoth, while Liam O'Brien will be scratched. This will be Hayton's first game since March 24 versus the Oilers, when he logged just one 17-second shift.

APRIL 30 • ROTOWIRE

Getting close to returning Hayton (upper body) isn't expected to play Wednesday in Vegas, but he's now day-to-day, per Cole Bagley of KSL Sports.

Impact Hayton was previously regarded as week-to-week, and he hasn't been in the lineup since March 24. The 25-year-old finished the regular season with 10 goals and 25 points in 67 appearances. He'll probably serve in a middle-six capacity once he's ready to return.

Practices, remains week-to-week Hayton (upper body) remains week-to-week despite participating in Tuesday's morning skate, Brogan Houston of the Deseret News reports.

Impact Hayton sported a non-contact jersey during Tuesday's session. He appears poised to miss Utah's final two games of the regular season. A return for the beginning of the playoffs also seems unlikely. Hayton hasn't played since March 24 against Edmonton.
