                     THE ISLAND HAS SUNK

   The Drive For Five has taken a dive.
   And The Run For One is done.
  
   The Edmonton Oilers have done it, at last. And they did it in a
   way  hockey fans are not likely to forget for a long time.
   Starting the series as underdogs, the Oilers completely outplayed
   the "invincible" Islanders in all the areas of the game. With 
   scores like 7-2,5-2 the Oilers made the Islanders look like a  
   minor league team. And when,finally the "unbeatable" Billy Smith, the key
   player in the Islanders team, was recalled to the bench in the
   second period of the fifth game, the humiliation was total and complete.

   And so, a great era has ended and perhaps, another one has just begun.
