THE BATTALION
londay, June 12,201
New Jersey Devils beat Dallas
Stars in overtime to win series R(]
DALLAS (AP) — The New Jersey
Devils finally won the Stanley Cup —
even’if they were almost too tired to lift
it once they did.
Jason Amott ripped a shot from the
left circle past Dallas goaltender Ed
Belfour 8:20 into the second overtime,
ending a second consecutive tension-
filled overtime game — and the Stars'
Stanley Cup run—with a 2-1 Devils vic
tory Saturday night.
Arnott one-timed Patrik Elias' shot
past Belfour as the Devils prevented the
Stars from forcing a Game 7 Monday in
New Jersey.
Because the Devils wouldn't lose on
the road to Dallas — they were 3-0 in
Reunion Arena — the Stanley Cup has
a new home. The Stars, who won the
Cup on the road in Game 6 last year in
Buffalo, lost it in Game 6 at home.
It was the third time in five years
the Cup was won in overtime, and the
fourth time in five years the Cup has
been won on the road.
Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur
ended his seven-game overtime fflay-
off losing streak by making 30 saves,
while Belfour — one of the heroes of
the Stars' 1-0, three-overtime victory
in Game 5 — lost despite stopping 43
of 45 shots.
It was the first time in the best-of-
seven era there have been back-to-back
multiple overtime games in the finals.
Devils defenseman Scott Stevens
was named the Conn Smythe Award
winner as the playoffs MVP.
The Stars' fans were clearly dis
traught at seeing the Cup won on their
ice, but most stayed to cheer the post
game presentation to Stevens by NHL
commissioner Gary Bettman.
Many fans began cheering, "Stan
ley Cup," and "Stan-ley Cup" and
"Ed-die, Ed-die" in appreciation not
only of two of the most stirring over
time games in recent Cup history, but
the excellent goaltending.
It was the end of one era for the
Devils—John McMullen's 18-year run
as owner — and, likely, the start of an
other. Larry Robinson became only the
third coach to win a Stanley Cup after
taking over during the season and, by
succeeding Robbie Ftorek with only
eight games left, became the latest to
take over a Cup champion. It was
Robinson's eighth Stanley Cup title, six
as a player and two as a coach, one as
an assistant.
The Devils opened a 3-1 series lead,
then nearly lost it in overtime — first in
the tense goalie duel in Game 5, then in
yet another multiple overtime in Game
6 — before avoiding a Game 7.
Only one team in NHL history, De
troit in 1942, has lost the finals after
leading 3-1. As might be expected, the
Devils won it on the road.
They are 5-0 all-time in road Stan
ley Cup finals games, winning all three
in Reunion Arena, where the Stars had
won 11 of their last 12 playoff games
before the finals.
The Stars became the first defend
ing champion to lose in the finals since
the New York Islanders in 1984. The
last four defending champs to reach
the finals all won.
The Devils are the first Eastern Con
ference team to win the cup since they
last did so in 1995.
Both teams started the first over
time with a rush. Sergei Brylin had an
open shot within 90 seconds for New
Jersey, but the puck hit off the heel of
his stick.
A short time later, the Stars’ Joe
Nieuwendyk, last year's playoffs
MVP, used a spin move to get open in
the slot, only to miss wide on an un
guarded shot.
Dallas had a rare overtime power
play — referees traditionally call only
the most blatant violations in overtime
— when Arnott cross-checked Blake
Sloan to the jaw while pinning him to
the ice at 18:43.
Despite having several good scoring
chances during the power play, the Stars
were credited with one shot on goal to
New Jersey's 11 in the first overtime.
One goal was enough for the Stars
Talk si

Aj
to win the three-overtime Game5,but
a one-goal lead didn't last two minutes
for New Jersey this time.
Scott Niedermayer ended the Dev
ils' 145-minute, 33-second scoreless
streak against Belfouron a3-on-lbreak
at 5:18, the Devils' second short-hand
ed goal in as many games in Dallas.
Claude Lemieux started theplayby
blocking Sylvain Cote at the blue line,
then took Jay Pandolfo's passtosetup
Niedermayer, who played junior hock
ey for Stars coach Ken Hitchcock.
New Jersey's first lead since the
third period of Game 4 lasted only 1:05
before Mike Keane tied it with only the
fourth goal in four games for Dallas. Bttention for is h

Weldon said these prescription drugs, like all medi
cines, react'differently for each patient.
The second strike occurs when prescription drugs
do not alleviate allergy symptoms. Weldon said as a
third level of allergy management, skin testing can
determine individual allergies to certain plants, ani
mals and foods and shots can be used to treat allergies.
"Skin testing should be carefully performed,
because it runs the possibility of reaction, whether it be
minor or severe," Weldon said.
"Thirty years ago, skin testing and allergy shots were
common in treating allergies. But there was less technol
ogy 30 years ago, and [there are] more medicines now."
Dr. Barry Pauli, of St. Joseph Physician Alliance, also
follows a three-strike plan.
"The first step an allergy sufferer should take is to
keep away from what is causing the allergy. That is
pretty obvious. If you know that you are allergic to cats
and you own one, get rid of it," Pauli said.
Pauli said if avoiding allergens does not work, then
over-the-counter and prescription medicines are the
next step.
Pauli also said that skin testing and allergy shots

should be used as the last resort.
"There are minor risks in skin testing and allergy
shots," Pauli said.

Griffith suggests student allergy sufferers visit A.P.

made public when students demanded to know what was going on between
Scott and White and the College of Medicine.
"The truth of the matter is that the students heard rumors. They heard
A&M and Scott and White were going to terminate their partnership and
feared they would not get to finish medical school becautse of the renegotia
tions," Noren said.
"A&M does not want to end its partnership with Scott and White," Noren
said, "but if matters shift and a change of partnership is put into effect, then,
by law, students are protected. The change cannot occur for four years, which
is enough time for each medical student to finish his or her education."
Noren said the College of Medicine has written a letter to A&M medical
students informing them of this legal guarantee.
The two hospitals where A&M medical students receive training and edu
cation are the Central Texas Veterans' Health Care System (VA) and the Scott
and White Medical Clinic located in Temple. i
Price said renegotiations look into the possibility of Scott and White mak
ing the VA a full-time partner, which adds to the tension felt on behalf of the
A&M College of Medicine. The uncertainty of the future of the A&M and
Scott and White partnership led the interim dean of the College of Medicine,
Roderick McCallum, to step down (as interim dean of A&M's College of
^Medicine) last week.
McCallum has also stepped down as interim vice president for academic
affairs with the health science center, which includes the College of Medicine
Dr. Nancy Dickey, who served as the first head of the American Medical
Association, has been chosen as acting dear, to replace McCallum until anew
acting dean can be found. Noren said he has extended his June 16 deadline
for continuing renegotiations between the two institutions.
