B.C. firefighter and ex-NHL player Ray Sawada dies suddenly at 38
A former NHL player and Richmond resident died suddenly at age 38 Monday evening while playing at a local rink.
Ray Sawada played with the Dallas Stars and numerous other professional hockey teams before settling down as a firefighter with the City of Burnaby in 2017. He kept his love for hockey alive by playing for fun locally and coaching his two young daughters’ Richmond team.“Ray was such a bright light in the lives he touched,” reads a fundraiser set up for the family. “Ray was passionately driven and motivated in everything he did, and the surrounding community will be left with a void.
“He was not only a gifted hockey player, but a devoted coach, who could be seen selflessly passing on his love and passion for the game to each of the girls he was on the ice with,” they wrote in a post to social media. “We will miss Ray more than words can express…”
