I will say, Amazon blows Sportsnet out of the water video quality wise. Maybe it'll make SN spend more than $5 on their infrastructure. Kids streaming video games from their parents place have better video quality than Sportsnet.

This is something we don't talk enough about in Canada. Sportsnet does a terrible job with most of their hockey broadcast, but especially their regional content. Poor production, no pre or post games, bad intermission content, barely better than illegal streaming quality. Every game feels cheap... probably because it is all done on the cheap. Last night is a perfect example. In a world where Sportsnet has the west channel, Flames channel, and Oilers channel plus all the available online bandwidth there's no reason not to have two audio feeds unless you're being cheap. The Oilers try to act like a premium entertainment product, but somehow let their regional TV partner act like third rate public access.

I've never been too caught up on the product of the broadcast outside the actual game. Growing up mostly in the Southeastern US in the 90s and early 00s, it was so rare that I actually got to see the Oilers play a game, I'm still just happy that any games are available to see in the US now.
