He also played for the Upper Canada College team as a student there from 2015 to 2016. [1] In showing early offensive promise, scoring 73 points in 59 games as a 15-year old with the Red Wings, Hayton was selected 9th overall in the 2016 OHL Priority Selection by the Sault Ste.

[13] Hayton rejoined the Coyotes and played in six more games before the season was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hayton travelled with the team to Edmonton for the play-in series against the Nashville Predators. [14] Hayton appeared in two of those games, but did not register a point.

[22] Hayton was out of the Coyote line-up for 16 games and returned on February 20, 2022. [23] At the conclusion of the 2021–22 season, Hayton became a restricted free agent. The Coyotes extended a qualifying offer to Hayton on July 11, whereby the Coyotes retained negotiating rights with Hayton. On September 20, 2022, Hayton signed a two-year, $3.55 million contract with the Coyotes. [24]
