In the last few minutes, the Dallas Stars announced a truly tragic news.
Former NHL player and former Stars organization member, Raymond Sawada, passed away in infinitely sad circumstances.
At only 38 years old, Sawada had just celebrated his young daughter's birthday on Monday before simply going to play a hockey game.

Our love goes out to his family, friends, and all the people he influenced in hockey and as a firefighter in his community.
