It will be the Devils first playoff appearance since moving to New Jersey in 1982. “I’m so happy,” right wing Pat Verbeek said after the Devils edged the Rangers for the final playoff berth with a 4-3 overtime victory over the Chicago Blackhawks. “All these years, all the losing, all the frustration. All our hard work fi nally paid off.” Left wing Aaron Broten echoed the feeling. “We were a bad team for so long,” he said. “It would have been cruel if we’d come this close and not made it.” In other opening-round games Wednesday, Philadelphia plays at Washington, Hartford at Montreal, Buffalo at Boston, Toronto at De troit, Chicago at St. Louis, Winnipeg at Edmonton, and Los Angeles at Calgary. The Devils-Islanders series fea tures a strong home ice advantage on both sides. The Islanders, who won their first Patrick Division title since 1983-84, were 4-0 against New Jersey at Nas sau Coliseum this season. But the Devils were 3-0 against the Islanders at the Meadowlands. John MacLean, w'ho scored the Devils’ winning goal Sunday, said the team won’t suffer a letdown in the playoffs. “We’ve been playing do or die games for the last 10 games of the season,” he said. “I think it will help us in the playoffs. It’s also a do or die situation.” While Devils’ fans were thrilled to see their team in the playoffs, Ed monton fans won’t be satisfied un less their team wins another Stanley Cup. The defending Cup champions finished second in the Smytlii sion, but they hope to redeem selves in the playoffs. “We’re still the champions.

If it wasn't his incomparable three-goal, three-assist performance in the NHL All-Star game at St. Louis, it was the goal he scored on his knees against Quebec — or his overtime game-winner while nearly flat on his back against Washington last Saturday. He had a league-high 10 short- handed goals, and even scored once with one hand held behind his back by a Toronto defenseman. He was Lemieux Le Magnifique — Lemieux the Magnificent. “He was so good it was scary,” Philadelphia Coach Mike Keenan said. “If he doesn’t get the MVP, there should be an investigation, 1 ” team mate Dan Quinn said. But while he became only the fourth player in NHL history to score 70 goals in a season, Lemiuex didn’t reach the one goal he’d set for the 1987-88 season: leading the Pen guins into the playoffs for the first time since 1982. Despite a 36-35-9 record that was a tremendous improvement over the dismal 15-58-6, pre-Lemieux days of 1983-84, the Penguins finished last in the Patrick Division, missing the playoffs by one point. It was a point that wasn’t lost on Lemieux, whose 168 points were the most ever by an NHL player other than Wayne Gretzky. “We still are a couple of players away but we will be better next year,” Lemieux said after the Penguins beat the Hartford Whalers 4-2 Sun day night. “We had some guys who wanted to make the playoffs.” It seems unlikely that a team with a player as good as Lemieux and a team that acquired All-Star de fenseman Paul Coffey from Edmon ton in November couldn’t make the 16-team playoffs, but the Penguins didn’t. So Lemieux had to be content with being the first player from a non-playoff team to lead the NHL in scoring since Roy Conacher of Chi cago in 1949. Lemieux had 70 goals and 98 as sists for 168 points in 77 games, 19 more points than Gretzky. Gretzky played in only 63 games because of a knee injury and failed to win the fins on tjaid.

Had Masanori “Steve” Ban lived in the United States, these accom plishments would make him a living legend. In Japan, where Ban was born and lives, he is merely the fore most authority and teacher of Amer ican football. Although baseball, soccer and vol leyball are Japan’s most popular sports — for both spectators and competitors — football is catching up in a hurry. According to Ban, 44, the game was introduced to the Jap anese some 50 years ago by an American missionary at Rikkyo Uni versity. Today, there are approximately 150 colleges and more than 100 high schools in Japan that field grid squads. “I first became interested in foot ball when I was in elementary school,” said Ban. “I saw a college game and didn’t understand it at all. The teams would fight, then break, then take a rest and fight again. In our country, a fight usually lasts un til someone gives up. coaching Hiyoshigaoka High School. He coached there for three seasons before he entered Meiji University in Tokyo as a student. While Ban picked up bits and pieces of the game during his early years, it was nearly enough to satisfy either his burning curiosity or com petitive side as a young coach. Thus, during his first season as a coach, he wrote to then-Oklahoma Coach Bud Wilkinson and requested any materials that would aid to his learning. Wilkinson responded by sending playbooks, films and train ing brochures. At the age of 16, Ban introduced the split-T offense and the Okla homa 5-2 defense to Japanese foot ball. Ban later visited Wilkinson at OU, and Wilkinson in turn made it possi ble for Ban to visit with many of the other college coaching innovators during the 1960s and 1970s. The list included Bear Bryant, Woody Hays, Darrell Royal, Bill Yeoman and Emory Bellard. “In the last 15 years, it has really caught on. Every Japanese knows what American football is.” The major differences between U.S. football and the Japanese ver sion is that Japanese youth in high school and college must pay for their own equipmwent, there is no recruit ing, and coaching is done strictly on a voluntary basis. And, as one might expect, there also is a wide gap between the size of players from the two countries. “In Japan,” Ban noted, “if you weigh 160 to 185 pounds, you are a lineman.” Ban played six years as a “substi tute guard, quarterback and half back” on one of Japan’s first college squads. Three years into his playing career, he took on the added task of While viewing Royal’s University of Texas football machine in the early 1970s, Ban met a young assis tant coach named Spike Dykes. Al most 10 years later, the friendship was renewed when Ban ran into Dykes again at Mississippi State, where he was an assistant on Bel- lard’s staff. Last fall, Dykes, now head coach at Texas Tech, invited Ban, who is entering his fifth season as head coach at Kobe University of Com merce, to visit the Red Raiders’ spring practice. Ban accepted the offer, and spent all of one week last month learning “nickel and dime defenses and the L-back (fullback in motion) offense,” which he hopes to introduce during the upcoming season in Japan. Ban has coached two college teams to ties in the Japanese national championship game. Some of his other contributions have been the introduction of the wishbone and veer offenses, the use of helmet logos and team nick names, and the development of weight training.
