The Seattle Kraken have hired Everett Fitzhugh as their play-by-play broadcaster, per Ryan S. Clark of The Athletic.
Fitzhugh will be the first Black team broadcaster in NHL history.
The Bowling Green State University graduate previously pulled double duty for the ECHL's Cincinnati Cyclones, running their public relations department in addition to his broadcasting work.
He's also done play-by-play for BGSU and run media relations for the USHL as well as the league's Youngstown Phantoms franchise.
Fitzhugh joined the Cyclones in 2015 and stayed there for five years before agreeing to head to Seattle.
