VANCOUVER – TSN Radio will soon expand to six Canadian markets after rebranding TEAM Radio 1040 and 1410 in Vancouver to TSN Radio 1040 and 1410 effective September 8.
TSN Radio in Vancouver will continue to be the exclusive home of every game from the Vancouver Canucks, BC Lions, Vancouver Whitecaps FC, Vancouver Giants, and Seattle Seahawks. The stations also will deliver coverage of the Vancouver Canadians and Vancouver Stealth, as well as live coverage of TSN’s slate of major sporting events, including the Grey Cup, IIHF World Junior Championship, FIFA Women’s World Cup Canada 2015, and golf and tennis majors.
