Howard's 'Hockey Fights Cancer' mask features Dave Strader
by from on (#1ZRR7)
Jimmy Howard is paying tribute to the former voice of the Detroit Red Wings, Dave Strader, with a portrait of the accomplished play-by-play announcer on the mask he's wearing Saturday to support the NHL's awareness initiative 'Hockey Fights Cancer'.
Strader, who's most recently lent his voice to the Dallas Stars, was diagnosed in June with cancer of the bile duct.
He's expected to appear on the Red Wings' broadcast during their game versus the Boston Bruins.
