I grew up watching HNIC in diapers. Him and Bob Goldham were awesome. Dave Hodge, Peter Puck....very sad.
I have his book "Golly Gee its Me"...
Thanks for starting me with my love for hockey Howie.
RIP

R.I.P. Howie, I remember many nights watching HNIC, listening to him calling the game. I swear the term "color commentator" was coined for him.
