THE BATTALION
Stars advance to face Duck
By Jaime Aron
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
DALLAS — Mike Modano
and Sergei Zubov helped carry the
Dallas Stars out of the first round.
Now the top-seeded team in the
Western Conference can look for
ward to some reinforcements.
Pierre Turgeon and Bill
Guerin, two of the team’s most
skilled and most expensive
players, could return from
injuries during the second-
round series against the
Anaheim Mighty Ducks. The
schedule for the series wasn’t
immediately announced.
Most teams would be undone
by losing two players the caliber
of Turgeon and Guerin. But with
the Stars’ depth — built with
one of the league’s highest pay
rolls — they were still able to
get past Edmonton in the first
round of the playoffs.
The Stars wrapped up the
series by winning Game 6 on
Saturday night. Modano scored
with 6:52 left to put Dallas ahead
3-2, then goaltender Marty Turco
did a great job protecting the lead
in the final minutes.
“When the game was on the
line, and he had the opportunity,
he made the most of it,” Turco
said of Modano. “Mike can be a
Supennan. He made the differ
ence for us in this series.”
Modano scored on a perfect
cross-ice pass from Zubov. It was
a fitting way to cap the series con
sidering each had 10 points, tying
them for the
MODANO
lead among
postseason
players. Each
has four goals
and six assists.
“Mike is
expected to
step up, but so
did others,”
Stars coach
Dave Tippett said. “When you
are missing key people, you have
to make up the difference.”
Guerin was lost in late
February to a gruesome thigh
injury, and Turgeon went out a
week later with an ankle problem.
Both underwent surgery.
Dallas struggled a bit without
them — and with Turco also get
ting over an ankle problem —
then recovered in time to earn the
most points in the West.
Although Edmonton was the
eighth seed, coach Craig
MacTavish came into the series
hoping the absences of Guerin
and Turgeon would catch up to
the Stars. Once the series ended,
he admitted he’d seen flaws in
their last four regular-season
games that he expected his te
to exploit.
“I thought they wouldbe\i|
nerahle in this series,” he si
“Game 1 down there provedlj
out. So did Game 3 here. !■
forced them to get better. I
that’s a good team, and fe
responded to our challenge."
The Oilers led the series 2-i
but lost the next three. Dal
eliminated Edmonton for the fill
time in six years.
Next up is an Anaheim teat
that’s coming off a stun:.:,
sweep of defending champiu
Detroit. The Stars are g
know the Red Wings are out!
the way — but they can’t be is
giddy about facing Mighty
goaltender Jean-Sebastis
Giguere. considering he altae
only five goals in four games.
That’s where the extra scoie
will be needed.
Turgeon and Guerin have tel
skating on their own and coui
return this series. Tuigen
appears closest.
Dallas also expects to 1®
back Jason Arnott, who «>
scratched from Game 6 afters
pregame skate. He left Game
after two periods because of i|
undisclosed injury.
The Stars went 3-1-1 agaus
the Mighty Ducks in theregul:
season.
Self visits Jayhawks’ campu
By Doug Tucker
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
LAWRENCE, Kan. — Bill Self arrived on
Kansas’ campus and joined basketball players for a
meal Sunday amid reports that he agreed to leave
Illinois and coach the Jayhawks.
Kansas scheduled a news conference for
Monday at 1 p.m. CDT to “introduce its men's
basketball coach.”
Jessica Johansen, the Jayhawks’ equipment man
ager, said Self ate on campus Sunday with players,
boosters and athletic staff. “I met him briefly,” said
Johansen, who wouldn’t say whether Self was intro
duced as Kansas’ new coach during the meal at the
school’s athletic center.
Reporters were asked to leave the building, and
Chancellor Robert Hemenway declined comment
when he left.
An employee at Lawrence Municipal Airpu
said that Self and interim Athletic Director Diu
Jennings were on a plane that landed at about
p.m. CDT.
Kansas received permission last week to spes
with Self about replacing Roy Williams, who left
coach North Carolina.
ESPN.com and the Web sites for The
City Star, The Lawrence Journal-World and!:
News-Gazette of Champaign, III. — all citit
anonymous sources — reported that Sfj
accepted the job.
Kansas Assistant Athletic Director Doug Vad
declined comment. Phone messages left by lil
Associated Press at Self's home and Illinois5/t®
Information Director Kent Brown’s office aMtat
were not immediately returned Sunday.
Self is 78-24 in three seasons at Illinois andli|
