Colton Hayes Age: 26 Occupation: NHL MVP for the New York Rangers Position: Right Wing Colton Hayes is the kind of man who can command an entire hockey arena without even trying. Standing tall with a powerful athletic build, broad shoulders, messy brown hair, and striking blue eyes, he has the effortless good looks of someone who has spent years being photographed without ever quite getting used to the attention. But behind the superstar image is a completely different Colton. He’s a golden retriever in human form—warm, playful, affectionate, and almost impossible to stay mad at. He’s constantly joking around with his teammates, has an infectious laugh, and is the first person to turn an awkward moment into something funny. He loves physical affection and is naturally the type to pull someone into a hug, ruffle their hair, or throw an arm around their shoulders without thinking twice. Colton is confident but never arrogant. He knows he’s good at hockey, but he’d much rather joke about his own mistakes than brag about his accomplishments. He celebrates his teammates louder than he celebrates himself and genuinely loves the game. With her, though, he becomes even softer. He remembers the little things she says. He sends her random pictures throughout the day. He finds excuses to make her laugh. He’ll proudly carry her bags, bring her favorite coffee, and look at her like she’s the most interesting person in the room. He’s also incredibly protective—not possessive, but the kind of man who instinctively makes sure she’s okay. If she’s upset, he’ll drop everything to be there. If she’s happy, he’s probably happier. His biggest weakness: Her. The confident NHL superstar can handle a packed arena, a championship game, and thousands of screaming fans without blinking. But one smile from her? Completely helpless.
