Early life

[edit]

Hathaway was born November 23, 1991, in Naples, Florida,[1]

Despite being ranked the 110th-best prospect among eligible North American skaters by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau, Hathaway was not taken in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft.[2]

During his final year at Andover, Hathaway committed to playing college ice hockey for Brown University.[3]

  • 2010-11
  • 2011-12
  • 2012-13
  • 2013-14

Professional

[edit]

Calgary Flames (2014–2019)

[edit]
Hathaway with the Stockton Heat in 2014

On March 14, 2014, after finishing his college hockey career, Hathaway signed with the Abbotsford Heat, the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Calgary Flames.[4][5] His first professional fight came in his AHL debut, against Jamie Devane of the Toronto Marlies.[2] Hathaway suffered two major injuries during his Abbotsford stint – a fractured foot from blocking a slapshot and a broken nose in a fight with Wade Brookbank.[6] He played eight regular season games to finish out the 2013–14 AHL season and made one playoff appearance with Abbotsford, recording no points and 20 penalty minutes in the process.[7]

  • 2014-15

With Calgary's usual lineup decimated by injuries early in the season, Hathaway was recalled from Stockton on November 12.[8] At the time, he had three goals and six points in eight AHL games that season.[9]

  • 2015-16
  • 2016-17
  • 2017-18
  • 2018-19

Washington Capitals (2019–2023)

[edit]
Hathaway with the Capitals in 2021

As a free agent, Hathaway signed a four-year, $6 million contract with the Washington Capitals on July 1, 2019.[10] After the Capitals' loss to the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2018 Stanley Cup playoffs, general manager Brian MacLellan wanted to improve the team's fourth line as a physical, penalty-killing unit that was also capable of scoring, and Hathaway started the 2019–20 season there with Nic Dowd and Brendan Leipsic.[11]

  • 2019-20

When the NHL reconvened for the 2020 Stanley Cup playoffs, Hathaway was one of 31 Capitals invited to the Toronto quarantine.[12] Hathaway skated in eight games, recording no points nad 12 penalty minutes,[1] as the New York Islanders eliminated the Capitals in the first round.[13]

Returning to the Capitals for the truncated 2020–21 season,[14] Hathaway was a consistent presence with Dowd and Carl Hagelin on Washington's fourth line.[15]

  • 2020-21
  • 2021-22
  • 2022-23

Boston Bruins (2023)

[edit]

On February 23, 2023, the Capitals traded Hathaway and Dmitry Orlov to the Boston Bruins in exchange for Craig Smith and three picks in upcoming NHL drafts: a first-round pick in 2023, third-round in 2024, and second-round in 2025.[16] Bruins general manager Don Sweeney praised Hathaway as a "hard-nosed guy" that Boston planned to use to "try to create some anxiety on the forecheck".[17]

  • 2022-23

Philadelphia Flyers (2023–present)

[edit]

On July 1, 2023, the Philadelphia Flyers signed Hathaway to a two-year, $4.75 million contract.[18] Hathaway was drawn to Philadelphia in part by the opportunity to serve as an experienced voice on a younger, rebuilding team.[19] He began the 2023–24 season on the Flyers' fourth line, playing alongside Nicolas Deslauriers and Ryan Poehling.[20]

Personal life

[edit]

Hathaway has a degree in business, entrepreneurship, and organizations from Brown.[21] In college, he operated a food cart that sold lobster rolls with his teammate Mike Juola.[22] While playing in Washington, Hathaway hosted a podcast called Between Two Blue Lines with teammate Nic Dowd. Rather than discussing hockey, the podcast focuses on Hathaway and Dowd's personal lives.[23]

Hathaway married his wife Lindsay on July 4, 2020.[23] The couple have one child together, a son born May 2021.[24][25] During the COVID-19 pandemic, Garnet and Lindsay created "Hath's Heroes", an organization that raised money to send meals and provide mental health programming to first responders in the Washington area.[26][27] In October 2022, he partnered with Other Half Brewing to release his own beer, Hath's Hazy, with proceeds benefitting Hath's Heroes.[28]
