"As one of our new owners, Wayne Gretzky, reminded people a few weeks ago when we launched our new franchise in Las Vegas, box lacrosse is the national summertime sport of Canada, and we couldn't be more pleased and eager to bring the NLL back to Canadian fans with TSN, the country's premier sports network," said NLL Commissioner Nick Sakiewicz. "This partnership will give us the ability to distribute NLL games to even more fans than ever before and showcase our amazing athletes, coaches, and action that so many Canadians love so dearly and have enjoyed in person."

"Box lacrosse is an exciting, fast-paced sport, and we are very proud to partner with the NLL to grow the game and bring comprehensive live coverage to Canadian viewers throughout the season," said Nathalie Cook, VP, TSN and RDS. "The NLL is a significant addition to our live sports schedule, one we know our fans will enjoy for years to come, and we're excited to deliver expansive coverage, both on and off the floor, to spotlight the league's talented players."
