Oilers Broadcast changes

[NegativeNelly]

At least I can turn off jack and listen to Cam Moon. Glad Ramenda is gone!

 

[Mav3rick07]

No more Remenda = I’m happy.

Kinda sad to see Kevin Quinn go though. I wonder if another team will sign him.

 

[Lrrr]

Brutal. Do not like Jack Michaels.

 

[OilerTyler]

No more "Overtiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime winner" call though

 

[Paralyzer008]

For those not following along:

Cam Moon is the Oilers new radio PxP, formerly known as the Red Deer Rebels guy.

Bob Stauffer remains the colour guy for CHED.

The biggest problem with Jack is "Jack and Bob".
I think both would be fine separately.

If Michaels tones down the screeching just a bit, I think he's actually pretty good as a play by play guy. Debrusk would be a good ying to the Michaels yang IMO.

I think Jack and Louie could make an interesting duo. I'm looking forward to it.

For the intermissions, I think this format will emulate the regional format for Flames broadcasts, with Bob playing the role of Eric Francis to Gene's Roger Millions with Spector also hanging around.

I think I am one of the few who hated this call. Sounded sooooo amateur.

I might be in the minority when I say a) I'll miss Quinn and b) I don't hate Michaels. I really hope the "OILERS radio network" doesn't become the "OILERS television network."

 

[Snipes45]

I have never heard of this Cam Moon. Going to go listen to some of his calls. Change is good sometimes.

I didn't catch that. So no simulcast then. That's probably better Louie's colour may not come across properly over the radio.

 

[Seachd]

Not a huge fan of Michaels. Like Moon, though, who dropped a live F-bomb on 960 a few weeks ago.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Good for Michaels I guess. Not a huge fan of his but alright. Will miss Quinn's iconic calls.

It won't. On TV you have the big Sportsnet Logo announcing what you are watching so you don't need to say it. On the radio you need to say it to indicate the station to listeners (even though most would know what station they are listening to). I suspect his drawn out OOOOOOOOOOOverrrrrrrtiiiiiimme will follow him though.

 

[Paralyzer008]

A taste of Cam Moon.

But I mean, saying "Oilers radio network" doesn't help anyone... if anything he should be saying "630 CHED."

Sounds like a solid addition to the crew.

I think the broadcasts are officially owned by the Oilers Radio Network though where 630 Ched has the rights to broadcast within the Edmonton region. Other stations outside Edmonton also carry games so 630 Ched wouldn't be correct for the other stations.

Moon is fine. Not a fan of Michaels. Oh well.

 

[dss97]

Who is with Jack? Still Louie?

Maybe I’m in the minority, but I think Jack is a pretty good announcer. He just spends too much time giving background info on the radio mid game, his style is better suited for TV.

 

[OfCorsiDid]

Interesting.

I guess we’ll see how this works on Wednesday. Personally I don’t mind it, too bad for Kevin; I wonder if it was the “Texas-Hat-Trick” comment that did him in.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Michaels on TV is a downer but glad they kept Gene and Louie
Never heard Cam Moon’s calls but I know he’s a local guy

 

[djdub]

Hoping Sportsnet will finally buy Jack Michaels some suits that actually fit him. Guy is always wearing suits that do not fit.

Good call. But anyone who is able to automatically go "Oilers Radio Network = 630CHED" is also able to know what station they're on.
