It’s not hard.
It's more expensive. I don't get why people are bothered by this. It was an Oilers broadcast because it was an Edmonton home game. What motivation does SN have to spend the extra money to have a mixed crew to appease the dozens of fans that get triggered by this?

It's a national game on all the networks. It will be unsurprising that SN will choose to treat it like a national broadcast, and use their national crew instead of the regional one. Again, not something about which to get bent out of joint.
