Sports brief
Bourque to retire
DENVER — Raymond Bourque
appears ready to end his NHL career
on top.
The Colorado Avalanche have
called a Tuesday news conference
for 2 p.m. ET in Denver, and ESPN .
has confirmed that Bourque will an
nounce his retirement.
The team would only say that the
star defenseman will make an an
nouncement about his hockey ca
reer. While the team would not re
veal what Bourque, 40, planned to
announce, the Denver Post said
Bourque will retire after 22 NHL sea
sons, primarily for family reasons.
The highest-scoring defenseman
in NHL history said previously he
wants to spend more time with his
family after more than two decades
in the NHL. Bourque had a 22-year
wait before winning the champi
onship, the longest in NHL history.
Bourque's Boston-based agent,
Steve Freyer, said Bourque had
made a decision about his future, but
Freyer wouldn't reveal what it was.
Bourque played for 21 seasons in
Boston, but he requested a trade to a
contender in March 2000 in hopes of
winning an NHL title. He finally got
it when the Avalanche beat the New
Jersey Devils for the Stanley Cup ear
lier this month.
Tears streaming down his face, he
hoisted the Stanley Cup on the ice at
Pepsi Center, the same facility where
he will make his retirement an
nouncement on Tuesday at noon MT.
During a parade for the Avalanche
through the streets of downtown
Denver two days after capturing the
cup June 9, Bourque said, "Do I real
ly want to come back? I'm 40 years
old. I could play, no doubt about that.
I played Game 7 two days ago, and I
played pretty well.
"It's not a matter of whether you
can or can't play. You've got to look
at it mentally, physically. It's not the
easiest thing to play when you're 40
years old. It takes a lot of energy.
Although he parried questions about
his future, saying he would announce
his decision in a few weeks, he has
talked recently about family concerns.
If Bourque retires, the Avs would
save $5.5 million — the difference
between his 2001-02 salary of $6.5
million and a $1 million buyout.
That would help the Avalanche pur
sue their marquee free agents: Joe Sa
kic, Rob Blake and Patrick Roy.

Ems
continued from page 7
Monday’s game was a much
closer affair. The Ems and Canadi
ans traded fistfuls of runs all game,
and eventually sent the game to
extra innings tied 7-7.
The Ems had a chance to win the
game in the bottom of the ninth,
when John Puccinelli led off with a
single. Pinch runner Eddie Serrano
was advanced to third after a single
and a ground out. Shortstop Jason
Bartlett —who had been 2-3 with a
triple up until that point — had a
chance to win the game but struck
out.
The Canadians went quietly in
the top of the 10th, and the Ems
pounced right away in the bottom
of the first extra inning. Second
baseman John DiBetta singled to
r
left and designated hitter Greg
Sain was hit by a pitch. The next
batter, catcher Nick Trzesniak, got
the remaining fans out of their
seats with a deep fly ball to cen
“We’ll win our share of
games. Of course I’m
disappointed we didn’t win,
butthere were a lot of good
things that happened out
there.”
Jeff Gardner
manager,
Ems
ter, but merely succeeded in ad
vancing DiBetta to third. The next
two Ems batters were retired,
ending the Ems’ hopes for a win
in that inning.
“We had our chancres,” Gardner
said. “We could have won the
game a couple of times.”
In the top of the 11th inning,
the Canadians’ Sandy Madera
walked, reached second on a sac
rifice bunt, then scored on left
fielder Joe Cirone’s single to left
center field. Cirone was sacri
ficed to second, then catcher
Jorge Soto walked. Canadians
shortstop J.P. Schmidt scored
what would be the winning run
with a single up the middle.
At 11:03 p.m., the game finally
ended, without much of the Eu
gene crowd around to see the fin
ish.
The Ems conclude their home
stand with Vancouver tonight' at
7:05 p.m.
