Tom Grace, the radio play-by-play voice of the Wilkes-Barre / Scranton Penguins, will call the action for the Milwaukee Admirals during Games 3, 4 and 5 of the Calder Cup Finals. Grace is filling in for Aaron Sims, who was unable to travel due to a family emergency.
"Tom is one of the most respected broadcasters in the American Hockey League and we appreciate his willingness to help us out on short notice," Admirals President Jon Greenberg said. "We certainly wish Aaron and his family the best during this difficult time."
Grace, who recently finished his seventh season with Wilkes-Barre / Scranton, was in the booth when the Admirals beat the Penguins for the Calder Cup championship in 2004.
