Islanders broadcaster Brendan Burke returning to MSG Network for 2024-25

Brendan Burke will be back behind the mic for the upcoming Islanders season.

The television voice of the Isles has agreed to terms with MSG Network to return this coming season, with the contract expected to be signed in the coming days, Newsday reported .

After taking over for Howie Rose during the 2016-17 season, Burke, 40, has become one of the rising young broadcasters in the business earning national roles on NBC’s erstwhile NHL coverage and then TNT’s subsequent broadcasting of the league.

Burke, the son of Don Burke, a sports copy editor at The Post, has also called baseball and college football for NBC.

The Islanders play-by-play man has pinch-hit on Yankees games on WFAN, but his name has been bantered about as a possibility as a replacement for the now-retired John Sterling, who stepped away from the microphone earlier this year .

Burke has described himself as a hockey announcer, but told Barrett Media in 2022 that calling Yankees games that season was “an awesome experience.”

“It means something to me in a sentimental way…the Yankees radio job specifically,” he told the outlet. “To actually sit in that chair and call Yankees games and just call baseball…it’s something that I had a passion for and I did a long time again and haven’t done in a long time so it was great to fill some of the down months in hockey with baseball.”

As for the vacant position in the WFAN booth for Yankees games, a permanent replacement for Sterling has not yet been named.

Justin Shackil, Emmanuel Berbari and Rickie Ricardo have called a majority of the games this season.

Ricardo had a memorable call on Tuesday night for Jazz Chisholm’s seventh-inning three-run home run in an extra-inning win over the Phillies.

“Smooth Jazz does it again, his fourth home run of the series,” Ricardo said as part of the call. “Jazz Chisholm Jr. is a Bronx Bomber from the Bahamas!”

Before Burke started calling Isles games, he previously was a broadcaster for the AHL’s Peoria Rivermen and Utica Comets.
