Seventy three years ago, a small but dedicated group of people took one special night and turned it into a time-honoured tradition that is known today as the Conn Smythe Sports Celebrities Dinner & Auction.
We are pleased to introduce the next recipient of our Conn Smythe Lifetime Achievement Award, the legendary, Darryl Sittler! Darryl will be honoured by Lanny McDonald.

This Year’s Dinner will be Hosted by Breakfast Television’s Sid Seixeiro
