If you're familiar with the sports scene in Edmonton and Canada you'll know the name Gene Principe. Gene has been a fixture of Sportsnet and Edmonton Oilers regional broadcasts since the early 2000s and has been in the sports media game for close to 30 years as a reporter with stops all across this country. He was gracious enough to drop by the Avry's Sports Show Studios in Edmonton to return to my podcast for the first time in about five years! We chewed the fat on the Oilers, his career, the changing landscape in sports media and his encounters with Michael Jordan and Wayne Gretzky.— This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/appSupport this podcast: https://anchor.fm/avrys-sportsshow/support
