TSN to broadcast 64 Winnipeg Jets games in the 2025-26 season including pre-season matchups.
The Winnipeg Jets have released their television schedule for the upcoming season, confirming that fans will be able to catch 64 games on TSN3. This includes four exhibition contests and 60 regular season games. The coverage begins on Sunday, September 21 when the Jets take on the Minnesota Wild at 4:00 p.m. Central Time. Viewers can tune in through TSN3, TSN.ca, or the TSN app.
TSN remains the exclusive regional rights holder for Jets games throughout the regular season. These broadcasts are available to viewers located within the team’s assigned market area as outlined by the NHL. This region includes the provinces of Manitoba and Saskatchewan, the territories of Nunavut and the Northwest Territories, and several communities in Northwestern Ontario such as Thunder Bay, Dryden, and Kenora.
The 60-game regular season broadcast package includes an even split between home and away games. Thirty of the matchups will be played at Canada Life Centre in Winnipeg, while the other thirty will take place in various NHL arenas across North America. One of the most anticipated events will be the home opener against the Dallas Stars on Thursday, October 9 at 7:00 p.m. Central Time.
An additional group of 22 regular season games will be shown on national television. This group includes appearances on Hockey Night in Canada, Sportsnet programming, and Amazon Prime’s Monday Night Hockey. Winnipeg is scheduled to appear 13 times on Hockey Night in Canada, five times on Sportsnet’s Wednesday night coverage, and four times on Monday night through Prime Video. Two preseason games, one against Calgary on September 27 and another against Minnesota on September 30, will be available to stream on the team’s official website.
TSN’s coverage of the Jets will once again feature play-by-play announcer Dan Robertson and analyst Kevin Sawyer. Both are returning to provide commentary and insight throughout the season.
Fans can also follow every Jets game on the radio. Global News Radio 680 CJOB will carry all broadcasts, with Power 97 providing a simulcast. Radio commentary will be led by Paul Edmonds on play-by-play, with analysis provided by Mitchell Clinton.
