Darren Dutchyshen, longtime TSN broadcaster, dead at 57

Darren Dutchyshen is best known for his roles on Sportscentre and SportsDesk in Canada.

Long-time TSN broadcaster Darren Dutchyshen has died, the network announced Thursday.

TSN said Dutchyshen died Wednesday at age 57. The cause of death was not provided, but his family said in a statement he was "surrounded by his closest loved ones."

"His sharp wit remained until his final moments, classically delivering plenty of jokes — most of them pretty good and all of them inappropriate," his family said.

Dutchyshen revealed he had prostate cancer on Sept. 9, 2021, and spent a year away from TSN while receiving treatment.

He returned to the screen alongside Sportscentre co-host Jennifer Hedger in September 2022 — and detailed his timeline.

"A year ago, I didn't know if I'd be coming back," Dutchyshen told both Hedger and TSN viewers. "That's when it was diagnosed that I had cancer.... It started a whole arduous process."
