Broadcasting career

Dutchyshen started his broadcasting career as a sportscaster at STV Saskatoon (now that city's Global station).[2] After a year, he moved to IMTV in Dauphin, Manitoba.[2] He then spent seven years in Edmonton, hosting Sports Night on ITV (also now a Global station), and for more than two years concurrently hosting a daily radio sportscast on co-owned 630 CHED.[3]

Dutchyshen joined TSN in 1995, as a host of TSN's weekend editions of SportsDesk and TSN's coverage of the Canadian Football League (CFL) during the football season.[1] He also hosted TSN's Olympic Prime Time coverage during the 2010 Winter Olympics and 2012 Summer Olympics.[2]

Personal life

Dutchyshen was born on December 19, 1966 in Regina, Saskatchewan[4] and grew up in the Northeastern town of Porcupine Plain. He graduated from the Saskatoon-based Western Academy Broadcasting College (WABC).[5] On September 9, 2021, he announced that he had prostate cancer, and detailed it in full a year later in his first show back at SportsCentre.[6][7]

Dutchyshen died on May 15, 2024, at the age of 57.[8] A family statement did not elaborate on the cause of death, but said he was "surrounded by his closest loved ones".[9]
