United StatesDuring the 2026 NHL draft, the New Jersey Devils attempted to make a trade with the Utah Mammoth involving Barrett Hayton, but the deal collapsed at the last moment. According to Cam Robinson of Elite Prospects, Utah withdrew from the agreement. In response, the Devils signed Hayton to a one-year, $4.775 million offer sheet, which would give Utah a second-round pick if they do not match the offer. Utah faces challenges in matching the offer due to limited cap space and a contractual clause that prevents them from trading Hayton for one year, potentially leading to his unrestricted free agency in 2027. Hayton, who was selected fifth overall in the 2018 draft, recently had a standout season with 20 goals and 46 points.
