[Staple] Can confirm the #Isles will have a radio simulcast of their TV broadcasts next season. Still a radio presence.

1. Not a great substitute for having a couple of dedicated radio guys call it. Radio calls need to be more descriptive than TV. And the Islanders have tried it before I believe around 2010, which is not a time in franchise history I like to revisit.

2. Kinda like how Mike and Tripp do in Carolina?

3. So ownership can afford to build a new arena but won’t pay for an actual radio broadcast. Scumbag move

4. https://i.redd.it/qwaljw66onwe1.gif

   Gotta squeeeeeze every penny.

5. That is a trash move.

6. That sucks. But more options for Brendan is cool too.

7. Is it at least going to be on a station that covers the whole island?

8. As somebody who loved listening to the Isles on the radio for decades, this saddens me tremendously

9. So pretty much any games exclusive to tnt and espn+ will not have a broadcast

10. Poverty organization. Doing everything they can to
    signal
    that they are second tier

11. Knowing the professional Brendan is, it would not surprise me if he adjusted the way he calls the game to accommodate the radio audience.
