The Worcester Railers have announced that they’ve re-signed forward Lincoln Hatten for the 2025-26 season. In his rookie season with the Railers, Hatten would put up nine goals and 15 assists for 24 points along with 94PIMs in 66 games. He also played in two games with the Evansville Thunderbirds during the 2024-25 season. Hatten is the second player to sign with the Railers this season, joining captain Anthony Repaci. I would expect Hatten to continue playing a physical role for the Railers, similar to the one we saw increase once the Railers let go of Kolby Johnson.
“Lincoln is a very big part to our team this upcoming season,” Tuzzolino said. “He did an unbelievable job making an impression on us early in the year and he instantly became a person that was embedded in this team’s culture. We really look forward to his contribution this year.”

It’s been an interesting road to Worcester for the Hattiesburg, Mississippi, native. He would spend three seasons in the NAHL with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Knights, where he would put up 31 goals and 47 assists for 78 points in 121 games. He would then spend the 2020-21 season in the NCAA with Army during his time at West Point, scoring four goals and adding nine assists for 13 points in 22 games. Lincoln Hatten would then take two years off from hockey before joining the Thunderbirds for the 2023-24 season. In 54 games during the 2023-24 season, he would put up five goals and 15 assists for 20 points. He would add two goals and three assists for five points in five games during the SPHL Playoffs.
