They split those, with the Moose chasing NHL All-Star holdout Nikolai Khabibulin from the net after just 12 shots and four goals on Friday. Back-up goalie Marcel Cousineau took over and also played on Saturday when Long Beach beat the Moose 5-1. Manitoba led the Western Conference most of the season but barely hung on to make the playoff cut. They clinched their playoff spot, not with a win, but when Houston beat Kansas City last Tuesday. Long Beach, on the other hand, was near the bottom of the conference until Khabibulin decided to holdout for more money with Phoenix and signed with Long Beach. Advantage: Long Beach. They have better goaltending, and they play two games at home where they are a slightly better team (at least according to statistics). The Moose are much worse on the road with a 15-22-4 record. Utah Grizzlies vs. Houston Aeros Opener: Tuesday, April 25 at the E Center (best of seven) Records: (2) Utah (45-25-12); (3) Houston (44-29-9) This will be one of the best series with two evenly matched teams and great goaltenders. The defending Turner Cup champion Aeros have the reigning IHL goalie of the week and former league MVP (1996-97) in Frederic Chabot. He's the third best goaltender, statistically. But Utah has last week's IHL goalie of the week and two netminders with nearly 400 NHL games experience. The Grizzlies also have some of the best forwards in the league, including a candidate for this year's league MVP honors Jarrod Skalde. Both have talented defensemen, although Utah has two who can score — Darcy Werenka and Ted Crowley. In their last meeting, Utah beat Houston at the E Center, but the Grizz haven't fared well at the Compaq Center losing both times they played there this year. Advantage: Utah. This team has it all, and when they put it together they're close to unbeatable. The playoff games also don't end in shootouts, something the Grizz have struggled with the last two months. The Chicago Wolves are in first place and will meet the winner of the Manitoba/Long Beach series in the semi-finals. Their season record was (53-21-8). EASTERN CONFERENCE Cleveland Lumberjacks vs. Milwaukee Admirals Opener: Friday, April 21 at the Bradley Center (best of three) Records: (5) Milwaukee (37-36-8); (4) Cleveland (40-30-12) The fourth-place Lumberjacks finished the season 6-2 against the Admirals. Milwaukee has two strong rookie-of-the-year candidates in defensemen Bubba Berenzweig and Jayme Filipowicz, but are 12th in a league of 13 teams on the penalty kill. The Admirals goalie Chris Mason has had two shutouts this season, the most recent Friday, April 15th against Michigan. The Lumberjacks have former Utah goaltender Ian Gordon, a runner-up for the IHL's goalie of the week this week. They also have former Grizzlies' forward Joe Frederick. The 'Jacks leading scorer is Brett Harkins who's had 19 goals and 46 assists this season, which is eighth in the league. Advantage: Cleveland. It will be close, but the Admirals haven't played well against the Lumberjacks this season at home or away. Orlando Solar Bears vs. Cincinnati Cyclones Opener: Wednesday, April 26 at Orlando Arena Records: (3) Cincinnati (44-30-8); (2) Orlando (47-23-12) These two teams played each other very even this season, but both teams did better away from home. Orlando won once at home but five times in Cincinnati. The Cyclones beat the Bears four times in Florida but only once at home. Each team has two shorthanded goals against the other. Both teams have had goalie changes, so it's difficult to say which team has the advantage there. Forward Gilbert Dionne leads Cincinnati against the Solar Bears on offense with 14 points this season. Orlando's offense against the Cyclones is lead by Herbert Vasiljevs and Mark Beaufait with 16 and 15 points, respectively. Advantage: Cincinnati. There has to be one upset in the semifinals. Grand Rapids is in first place in the East with a record of (47-23-12) and will play the winner of the Cleveland Milwaukee series. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com [ To quit the utah-grizzlies mailing list, send to majordomo@xmission.com ] [ the command "unsubscribe utah-grizzlies" (don't include the quotes) ] ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 18 Apr 2000 14:19:25 -0600 From: "R.

Whether it's 0-2, or 1-3 it still means we need to win our first two at home. Good thing we play OT's in playoffs rather than have shootouts. This will be a tough series because Houston will be sparked to retain their title. I'm waiting for someone outside of our Grizz community to make a reference to the All-Star game last January.

On any other night, the 21-year-old rookie might have been pulled aside for a compliment on his goal and assist, or a brief look at something on the video tape. Tuesday, there was only bad news after so much good. "My apartment burned down," Robinson said as he came out of Tomlinson's office, his face blank enough from shock that he was almost smiling in spite of himself. That look lingered as he sat in his shin pads and hockey shorts in front of his locker. His teammates emerged from the showers, dressing up for a night on the town in honor of their 5-3 playoff win over the Anchorage Aces. Robinson just sat. "I'm shocked," he said. What else could he say? Just as Robinson was preparing to take the ice for the pregame skate, an apartment building burned down not far from the World Arena. The building where Robinson lived with roommate and teammate Bryan Randall. Yes, the Gold Kings took a 1-0 lead in the best-of-five first-round West Coast Hockey League playoff series. They did that thanks in large part to Robinson and Randall, who lost far more. Robinson and Randall arrived from Idaho on March 18 in a trade-deadline deal. The two 21-year-old rookies knew only each other. They moved in together, had their stuff shipped down to Colorado Springs. Lots of it? "Lots," Robinson said. "Clothes, stereo ..." For a 21-year-old, what else is there? They spent Tuesday night in a hotel, will get a new apartment as soon as the team can find one. For now, there is only disbelief. "Everybody's in shock right now," captain Tom Perry said. "You can just help them whatever way you can if they need anything everybody can lend a hand and go from there. I've never heard of anything like that." When they left for the World Arena on Tuesday, everything was great in their lives. They sure played like it. Robinson set up the Gold Kings' first goal from behind the net and scored their third; Randall assisted on the Gold Kings' second and scored their fourth, the game-winner. Although the fire started at 6:15, quite sensibly the decision was made not to tell them until after the game. They played on. They were both named stars of the game, pulled onto the ice after the game for a round of applause. And then Robinson and Randall were told, privately. In the locker room, music played and players were smiling. The other Gold Kings know Robinson and Randall will be taken care of. And who knows how to deal with something like this, anyway? Especially on the heels of a really great win when every instinct is joyous. "It's unbelieveable," R.J. Enga said. Robinson and Randall will be given clothes, shelter and comfort. They are young. They are resilient. They can rebuild. But on the night Robinson was presented with the league's rookie of the year trophy, he and Randall lost everything else. This should have been their game, their night not to forget. "You know," Robinson said, "it's a good win for us." They won't forget it now, not for so many reasons.
