The Montreal Canadiens organization has confirmed the signing of a historic long-term partnership with TSN and RDS, two of the biggest sports broadcasters in Canada.
An important announcement has just come from the Montreal Canadiens.
This agreement will ensure the Tricolore's presence on these networks for many more years to come.
TSN and RDS retain regional broadcasting rights for the Montreal Canadiens
According to information shared by RDS, the new deal guarantees regional broadcasts of Canadiens games throughout Quebec and Atlantic Canada.
Also according to RDS and TSN, a total of 50 games will be presented on TSN and 45 on RDS, in addition to live streaming on the digital platforms of both networks.

A partnership that goes beyond hockey
The agreement isn't limited to games. Fans will also have access to exclusive content, notably through the documentary series THE REBUILD: Inside the Montreal Canadiens, available on Crave.
Personally, I have to admit that I loved Season 2, which was released a few weeks ago.
This production, narrated in French by Marc-André Grondin, has been a huge success so far!
This agreement solidifies TSN and RDS's position as the go-to broadcasters for hockey in Canada!
