      The Blackhawks, who were visiting the Prudential Center, wore jerseys with his No. 39, which he wore for his NHL debut and two seasons in Chicago, and "Hayesy" on the back.

      Members of the Philadelphia Flyers honored Jimmy Hayes with writing on their skates. Jimmy's brother, Kevin Hayes, is a member of the Flyers but currently out of the lineup due to an abdominal injury.
