He makes the smaller plays: Eliminating sticks, supporting down low, and angling attackers. When necessary, he makes the big plays, whether that's a diving poke check, shot block, or crushing hit. With the puck, Hay plays a straight-forward game. He gets open inside space, shoots off the pass, and relocates. -EliteProspects 2023 NHL Draft Guide
