The Oilers broadcast uses their breaks to talk about the Oilers and pump their tires, regardless of the opponent. You learn little to nothing during an Oilers broadcast except how great, talented and proud the Oilers are.

And they're things that don't even make sense. Like, pushing their own player with a stick to make them faster?? What?? Or a depressing story about a young boy not knowing if his RCMP father would come home that night? Was Drew Remenda always this terrible?
