Personal life[edit]

On August 23, 2021, Hayes was found dead in his Milton, Massachusetts, home at the age of 31.[5] His funeral service, held on August 30 at St. Ann's Church in Dorchester, was attended by Hayes' younger brother Kevin and his former youth hockey teammate P. K. Subban.[6] Although an initial autopsy did not reveal Hayes' cause of death,[7] later toxicology reports indicated that he had died with cocaine and fentanyl in his system.[8] Hayes's father revealed that Jimmy had begun taking prescription painkillers after an undisclosed injury, and that he had spent time in a rehabilitation facility after becoming addicted to the drugs.[9]
