Red W'ings take Western Conference title
□ Detroit scored in the
second overtime to
beat Chicago 2-1.
DETROIT (AP) — After an
absence of 29 years, the Detroit
Red Wings are back in the NHL
finals with a chance to win
their first Stanley Cup champi
onship in 40 years.
Vyacheslav Kozlov’s goal
2:25 into the second over over
time period Sunday night gave
Detroit a 2-1 victory over
Chicago, eliminating the Black-
hawks in the fifth game of the
Western Conference finals.
Kozlov took a pass from
Sergei Fedorov and skated past
defenseman Chris Chelios. He
put a good fake on Chicago
goaltender Ed Belfour, who had
been brilliant to that point,
then blasted the puck between
Belfour’s pads.
Detroit last won the champi
onship in 1955. That 40-year
drought is longest in the NHL.
The second longest belongs to
the Blackhawks, who last won
the Cup in 1961.
It was the third overtime
game of the series. Detroit won
all three.
Both goaltenders were su
perb. Belfour turned away all
but two of 47 shots; Detroit’s
Mike Vernon faced 26 shots.
Belfour had most of the work
in the first three periods, when
he made 37 saves. Vernon made
almost as many saves in the
first overtime as he did in regu
lation as the Blackhawks final
ly outshot the Red Wings in a
period, 11-7.
Denis Savard scored a first-
period goal for Chicago. Steve
Yzerman tied it with a goal in
the second period.

Belmont win has trainei
eager for more success
Ed

th<
Te
NEW YORK (AP) — With his
Triple Crown streak at a record
five straight victories, trainer D.
Wayne Lukas already has his
mind on No. 6. And maybe No. 7
and No. 8, as well.
“We sure have started think
ing about it,” Lukas said Sun
day morning after Thunder
Gulch’s Belmont Stakes victory
on Saturday gave the trainer a
record fifth consecutive win in
the series. “We’ve got good 2-
year-olds, so we ought to be in
the Derby.”
Even should a Lukas horse
fail to win the next Derby, his
five-race streak, which started
with Tabasco Cat’s wins in the
1994 Preakness and Belmont,
appears to be a virtually un
breakable record.
A trainer either would have to
have two or more colts with
Triple Crown ability — as Lukas
did — or win two consecutive
Triple Crowns with one horse. No
3-year-old has won the Triple
Crown since Affirmed became
only the 11th to do it in 1978.

Mantle walks for first

time since liver surgery
q The Hall-of-Famer's
next step in recovering
is regaining his mobility.
DALLAS (AP) — Baseball
great Mickey Mantle did some
thing Sunday he hadn’t been
able to do in more than a week:
He took a walk.
As a prescribed part of his
recovery from liver transplant
surgery last Thursday, the 63-
year-old got up out of his bed
and walked to a chair.
Mantle’s first steps with his
new liver came a day after he
was transferred from intensive
care to a private room at Baylor
University Medical Center.
Dr. Goran Klintmalm, med
ical director of the Baylor
Transplantation Institute, said
Mantle has emerged from his
“first hazard zone.”
Klintmalm had said Satur
day that Mantle’s mobility was
the next goal, though he admit
ted moving to a chair might
prove uncomfortable for the
Hall of Earner.
The next phase of Mantle’s
recovery is fighting off likely
attempts by his body to reject
the new organ. Klintmalm said
Mantle runs a “60-65 pert
risk” of having it happen.
Klintmalm added thatri
tion can be combatted by dr,
antibiotics and steroids.

Gretzky portrayed an
Elvis-like singer/waiter/hock
ey player who won the big
game, got the girl and man
aged to perform a snappy mu
sical number along the way.
“Super Mario” does not
conjure up images of the
black-and-gold uniforms of
the Pittsburgh Penguins, but
rather the red and gold of the
Houston Rockets. The real
“Super Mario” is Mario Elie,
who won the seventh game of
this year’s Phoenix series
with the biggest three-pointer
of his life.
Speaking of Houston,! tried
to follow the new Houston
Aeros in the IHL this past
year, but it didn’t pan out. It’s
hard to introduce a new team
to Houston when the city
already possesses the kings
of mediocrity, the Oilers and
the Astros.
Why root for another team
going nowhere? The Rockets
may win another champi
onship this week, but there is
still 30 years of baseball and
football frustration pent up in
the Bayou City.
Hockey first became appar
ent to me when I began read
ing the sports section cover
to cover as a child. I remem
ber once coming across a
box score that read “Oilers 5,
Jets 2.”
Stunned and heartbroken,
I pondered how the Houston
Oilers had played a game on a
Wednesday night without
mentioning anything to the
rest of us.
I flipped through the sports
section, frantically searching
for the game story of the Oil
ers’ low-scoring grudge match
with the Jets. It was nowhere
to be seen.
I read the box score a little
more carefully, and noticed
that these Oilers hailed from
Edmonton, the defeated Jets
from Winnipeg.
I felt relieved, the Col®
bia Blue had not betrayedni:
But in days to come, I won!
continue to watch the tr®
and tribulations of the $
monton Oilers on the spod 1
page, silently rooting for
team I had never seen play.
Was this a case of being
hockey fan and not knowiri
it? No, it simply defined u
lack of reading compreher
sion skills as a child. Once
was established that ther ,:
was another team withth*
moniker ‘Oilers’, my brainrf
fused to believe there was k
a connection between the W
Somewhere deep inside, Ibf
lieved that the success off®
monton would somehow be®
fit the helmeted residents {
the Astrodome.
Yesterday, the contest v®
between the mighty New Jf
sey Devils and the awe-inspi 1
ing Philadelphia Flyers. I nat
urally took the side of the FI;
ers because former Astro o#
er John McMullen owns tfr
Devils, and New Jersey isj® !
an ugly state in general.
No one scored in the 2 !
minutes that the television
was on. Contrary to belk
there were no fights in #
span of time. There were lo* -
of changes of possession, a®
the game wore on, I realiz®
what I was really watching
soccer on ice.
Yes soccer, the sport tl®’ !
did not captivate American
last summer when the Wool
Cup was held in the Unit f
States. The similarity
are striking —low scores, ple n
ty of opportunities for ti®
pointless running around a®
announcers getting way to
excited at shots that aln#
go in.
Needless to say, I’m n°
fond of soccer either. Addin:
sticks, a puck and a sheet (
ice hardly makes the ento r
tainment value go up.
