For the people that are saying they're liking what they see out of Hayes tonight:
Yes, he has looked good.
But, he still blows nearly every chance he gets with a shot that hits the glass. He's one of those players who can't put it on net, he always has to try to "snipe" even though he doesn't have the skill to do such a thing.
So, yes I agree he's been a lot better than many of his recent outings (including last year). But when "liking his game" still entails that he is blowing all of his chances, I don't want him here. He lives in a house with a two foot ceiling.
