Former CKDM and IMTV sportscaster Darren Dutchyshen has passed away at the age of 57.
'Dutch' as he was known came to Dauphin in 1986 after launching his broadcasting career at STV in Saskatoon.
He is most well known for his time on TSN as a host of Sports Centre, and returned to Dauphin in August of 2009 with co-host Jennifer Hedger to host the show as part of the Kraft Celebration Tour.
Born in Regina and raised in Porcupine Plain, Saskatchewan, Dutchyshyn - who still has family in the Gilbert Plains area - was diagnosed with prostate cancer in September of 2021, but returned on air to TSN about a year later.
