One day after the sudden death of his brother — and former NHLer — Jimmy Hayes, Philadelphia Flyers forward Kevin Hayes posted a heart-wrenching Instagram post in honour of his "best friend."
"Yesterday I lost my best friend, my brother. My whole life it has always been 'Jimmy and Kevin,' or 'the Hayes brothers.' I have followed you around since I can remember and I wouldn't want it any other way. Whether it was youth hockey, Nobles, Boston College or the NHL, you paved the way for me. You taught me everything I need to know in order to succeed," he wrote.
