EDGE Analysis

While the trio -- which slots in as the B's third line -- is hardly set in stone, it's an assignment that could stick for Hayes if David Pastrnak and Loui Eriksson end up manning the right wing on the Bruins' top two lines. That said, given that Hayes can play on either wing, he could end up being mixed in with other linemates down the road, in particular once injuries hit the B's up front. In any case, with his 6-foot-6, 221-pound frame, Hayes -- who notched 19 goals and 35 points in 72 games with Florida last season -- will provide the Bruins with a big-bodied forward with some scoring touch.

Hayes signed a three-year, $2.3 million contract with the Bruins on Monday. Hayes could immediately slot into a top-six role that was previously occupied by the under-performing Reilly Smith, who was traded to the Panthers in exchange for Hayes this offseason. Hayes proved that he can be a valuable offensive contributor last season with the Panthers, registering 19 goals and 16 assists for a total of 35 points in 72 games. He is a big-bodied forward (6'6") who could become a valuable net-front presence for the Bruins on one of their power play units next season. Hayes is certainly a player fantasy owners will want to keep an eye on heading into 2015-16.

Hayes is a restricted free agent, meaning the Bruins will need to negotiate a new contract with him in order to retain his services for the coming season. The team shouldn't have too much difficulty agreeing to terms with the 25-year-old, a local boy who played three seasons at Boston College. Hayes demonstrated some prowess has a goal scorer last season with Florida, finding twine 19 times in 72 games. He could provide a direct replacement for Reilly Smith on one of the Bruins' top two lines.

Hayes scored a third period goal in the Panthers' 4-2 victory over the Bruins on Thursday. Hayes scored his 19th goal of the season, which has expanded his career mark considerably. The big bodied winger should continue to improve as the 25-year-old has made immense strides this year in the scoring department and has established himself as a key piece of the Panthers' power play as well, scoring 11 points (four goals and seven assists).

Hayes led the Panthers with five shots on goal and dished out two assists while going plus-2 Thursday in a 6-1 shellacking of Carolina. That's points in consecutive games now for Hayes, who'd missed the scoresheet in six of seven previously. The 25-year-old's current point-every-other-game pace is fairly reflective of what fantasy owners can expect from him moving forward.
