The Islanders will have a new radio home, while ESPN New York has begun programming 1050 AM.
The team and the station have agreed to a two-year deal, The Post has learned, that will allow its fans to hear Isles’ games predominantly on 1050, but also, at times, on 98.7 FM.
ESPN New York is the home of the Knicks and the Rangers, which games will take precedence on 98.7 over the Isles. The games were previously on Hofstra’s radio station, with Radio.com the digital home. They have been heard occasionally on WFAN.
Under ESPN, Chris King will continue as the team’s play-by-play caller.
