St. Louis Blues forward Kevin Hayes had some special visitors before Monday’s game against the Boston Bruins.

In his hometown of Boston, Hayes welcomed his two young nephews, Beau and Mac, to come to the arena and watch him skate before the game, creating some adorable moments with the family.

Beau and Mac are the sons of Hayes’ brother, Jimmy Hayes, who unexpectedly passed away in 2021. Jimmy played seven seasons in the NHL, including two for the Bruins.

Kevin’s nephews – both wearing their uncle’s Blues jersey – got front row seats to watch the team practice.

Always nice to see family when you’re in your hometown.
