He's a dinosaur that fits in with the Neolithic culture of hockey. He's part of the same culture that consistently fawns over the Oiler perpetual failure. He paints a picture for a captured audience of white males and draws as many people to the game as a fight.
His insight is minimal because he wastes time making useless comments like Pierre McGuire more than asking insightful questions that draw more out of those around him.
He was suited to hometown hockey and the fact that he didn't bring a substantial audience with him to hear his diatribes is evidence how insignificant he is.
