I wouldn't say its over (it could be a blip in the riding), but it doesn't seem to be the blowout its portrayed as.
I also drove through Jonathan Denis riding today and again the signs on public property were clearly in his favour (at least in the part I was in). My office is in Swanns riding and its basically his to lose based on what I see, same with Kent Hehr in Buffalo.
Obviously this is purely anecdotal and could be entirely wrong. I just look as I'm in these areas, so its not incredibly accurate. I just wouldn't be planning the parade just yet.

Another thing to take into account is that I imagine that the latest round of PC Gerrymandering probably makes their vote the most efficient. Some ridings in Calgary look like some American Style congressional districts
. Examples: Calgary-Greenway, Calgary Mackay-NoseHill (Which almost completely surrounds Calgary Northern-Hills)
