During a Sportsnet Halloween themed pregame, Oilers host Gene Principe decided to interview a child before the puck drop.

Gene Principe, who has always been known for his colourful demeanor and cringe worthy puns was dressed as a hotdog for Halloween. Before the game, Principe approached a child for an interview with some Halloween candy, and Principe got absolutely roasted on live television.

Gene: Kids are so nice, how about you buddy, ill give you this, but tell me why you're not dressed up (for Halloween)

Kid: I don't wanna look like a wiener!

Gene: What!?

This hilarious interaction is currently blowing up on X (formally known as twitter). I think Gene Principe was definitely humbled during this interview in a hilarious way. The Oilers fanbase definitely has a love/hate relationship with Gene Principe. Although some fans have grown to love his enthusiasm over the years, some fans leave his pregame segments on mute as listening to him can sometimes be unbearable.

Although the Edmonton went on to dominate the Nashville Predators by a score of 5-1, the highlight of the game was by far this pregame interview. Gene Principe was good sport about the whole thing, like he always is. As the Edmonton Oilers gear up for the Battle of Alberta tonight, it will be interesting to see what Gene Principe has in store for tonight's pregame show.
