If Oilers fans want to trumpet about how great the team looks, then it wasn't based on last night. Last night was about one player.
The one solace is that Flames fans can trumpet about a single player too - Mike Smith.

Since Smith was clearly Calgary's only decent player last night, stopping for than 40 shots, it would seem like the Oilers as a whole were creating some pretty good offensive chances.
One player may have scored the goals, but he wasn't solely responsible for firing all 45 or so shots Smith's way.
