W 5 T-.-i5tSM at l3 DALLAS (AP) - Jason Arnott had the puck on his stick, a teammate in his thoughts and a Stanley Cup to ssitn fot the exhausted New Jersey Devils. Arnott ripped a shot from the left cir- cle past Dallas goaltender Ed Belfour 8:20 into the second overtime, ending a second consecutive tension-filled over- time game - and the Stars' Stanley Cup run - with a 2-1 Devils victory Saturday night. Arnott one-timed Patrik Elias' no- look pass as the Devils prevented the Stars from forcing a Game 7 Monday in New Jersey and won their second Cup in six seasons. "It's all a big blur," Arnott said. "I remember the goal going in, but every- thing else is a blur." As the Cup was handed to Elias, he had injured linemate Petr Sykora's jer- sey draped over his shoulder. Sykora was carried off on a stretcher with 12:08 gone following a collision with the Stars' Derian Hatchet, but was not believed to be seriously injured. Elias called Sykora and told him the team would bring the Cup to him in the hospital. Sykora was kept overnight for observation. "He said that when we scored, he was jumping out of the bed," Elias said. Because the Devils wouldn't lose on the road - they were 3-0 in Reunion Arena - the Stanley Cup has a new home. The Stars, who won the Cup on the road ina multiple-overtime Game 6 last year in Buffalo, lost it in a Game 6 multiple overtime at home as the Devils won the series 4-2. No other team has had to play suc- cessive multiple-overtime games at the end of the finals to win the Cup. Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur ended his record-tying seven-game overtirne playoff losing streak by mak- ing 30 saves, while Belfour - one of the heroes of the Stars' exhausting 1-0, three-overtime victory in Game 5 - lost despite stopping 43 of 45 shots. He allowed only two goals in the final 208 minutes, 33 seconds of the series, yet still wound up losing. The New Jersey Devils swere one happy and exhausted team after win- ning the Cup in Dallas late Saturday night. As a dejected Belfour knelt, the puck nestled in the net, Arnott skated behind him, pumping his fists and tearing off his equipment so he could hug h:s teammates. "These were two unbelievable hock- ey games, Stars coach Ken Hitchcock said. "Without the two goaltenders that were out there, these games could have been 9-8: Both teams put everything they had into it, and both teams knew the crises situation they were in." A Devils loss would have given the Stars a chance to do what New Jersey did against Philadelphia in the Eastern Conference finals by rallying frotn a 3- I deficit. Only one team in NIL histo- rv, Detroit in 1942 to Toronto. has lost the finals after leading 3-1. It was the third time in five years the Ctp was won in overtime, and the fourth time in five years the Cup has - been won on the road. "This is an unbelievable feeling'" said Brodeur, who had been 1-5 in mul- tiple-overtime games. "This time around, I think I realized it a little more.
