Kevin Hayes, a key piece for how the Penguins’ roster puzzle will come together

The placement for where Kevin Hayes would be in the Pittsburgh Penguins’ lineup has been one of the more intriguing questions entering training camp.

Two days into camp, Hayes skated on the left wing of Blake Lizotte, with Noel Acciari on the right side. Hayes scored three goals today in a 4-2 intra-squad scrimmage against a team with Evgeni Malkin on it. (Lizotte added the other goal to keep all the offense for that line).

A September scrimmage means jack squat in the big picture, but as always it will be interesting to see what developments may follow.
