Strader, who joined the Stars' broadcast team prior to last season, was diagnosed with cancer back in June.
Prior to his stint with the Stars, Strader handled play-by-play duties for NBCSN's regular-season and Stanley Cup Playoffs coverage, beginning with the 2011-12 season. He had also called every Stanley Cup Final for NHL International since 1997.
Strader previously worked as the broadcast voice of the Red Wings, Panthers, and Coyotes.
