The sky is falling in Edmonton, or at least that's what fans, writers, and popular opinion around the city seems to suggest.That is, until the Oilers laid a beating on last year's Stanley Cup finalist Detroit Red Wings.Edmonton was simply a better team, out-shooting the Red Wings in every period, out-working the Red Wings' players, especially their goaltenders.
