Winnipeg Jets games are moving to TSN following the network’s new expansion into five feeds.
TSN and True North Sports & Entertainment Ltd., which owns the Jets, announced Monday that beginning this season, the network’s package of 60 regional Jets games will be moved to TSN3.
TSN3 is part of TSN’s new expanded lineup of five national feeds branded TSN1, TSN2, TSN3, TSN4 and TSN5 that debut August 25.
To access regional Jets games on TSN3, fans must live in the Jets’ designated broadcast region, which includes Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Nunavut, the Northwest Territories, and parts of northwestern Ontario.
With games being moved to TSN3, the previously offered TSN Jets service is no longer required and will be retired.
TSN’s Jets coverage will feature play-by-play commentary by veteran broadcaster and Manitoba native Dennis Beyak. Colour commentary duties will be shared by Shane Hnidy and Brian Engblom.
TSN Winnipeg bureau reporter Sara Orlesky will follow the Jets all season long to deliver news on the team across TSN’s slate of programs and platforms.
For radio coverage of the Winnipeg Jets, TSN Radio 1290 in Winnipeg will continue to bring fans live coverage of every Jets game as the team’s official radio broadcaster.
TSN 1290 delivers all the play-by-play action and analysis from a rotating crew of veteran broadcasters familiar to Jets fans.
