Devils Whip Penguins Again
NEWARK, N.J. (AP) - Patrik Elias scored a breakaway goal and set
up another for the New Jersey Devils, who beat the sloppy
Pittsburgh Penguins 5-2 on Wednesday night and completed a six-game
season sweep of their Atlantic Division rivals.
That vaulted New Jersey into a first-place tie with the
Penguins. Both teams have 87 points, but the Devils have played one
fewer game. Fans chanted "You can't beat us!" as the final
seconds ticked down.
Pittsburgh, which played without star forward Evgeni Malkin
(sore foot) is 5-2-1 since the Olympic break. The three losses have
come in the past four games.
Texas Rangers Manager Used Cocaine
SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) - Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington has
admitted he made a "huge mistake" when he used cocaine and failed
a Major League Baseball drug test last season, calling it stupid
and shameful. Washington said he told the commissioner's office and
Rangers officials about using cocaine before he had a routine drug
test last July. He offered to resign before the test but was turned
down by Rangers president Nolan Ryan.
Seton Hall Fires Basketball Coach
SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. (AP) - Seton Hall has dismissed men's
basketball coach Bobby Gonzalez following a 19-and-13 season that
ended with an NIT loss to Texas Tech. The firing came about 12
hours after Pirates forward Herb Pope was ejected for hitting a
Texas Tech player below the belt and Gonzalez picked up his seventh
technical foul of the season. University president Monsignor Robert
Sheeran said he wasn't happy with Gonzalez's conduct, telling him
he lost confidence in his ability to coach and lead the program.
