DALLAS (AP) — TWo years ago
the Edmonton Oilers delivered a
shock to the Dallas Stars they will
never forget.
They knocked the Stars out of
the Stanley Cup playoffs in the first
round on a goal by Todd Marchant
in overtime of Game 7.
“We learned a lot from that
thing that happened two years
ago,” Dallas coach Ken Hitchcock
said. “We know not to overlook
anybody. We learned our lesson."
The Stars, who have the home
ice advantage throughout the play
offs because of their NHL-best reg
ular season mark, meet a No. 8
seeded Oiler team Wednesday
night they beat three times and tied
once in four meetings.
“Being the No. 1 seed is a bur
den you have to accept,” Hitchcock
said. “You know that going in.”
Edmonton has no problem play
ing up the underdog role.
“Being a complete underdog is
a huge blessing,” Edmonton coach
Ron Low said. “There’s absolutely
no pressure on us. The pressure is
squarely on Dallas’ shoulders."
Dallas is not the only team the
Oilers have ruined in the playoffs.
Colorado was ousted by Edmonton
last year.

CINCINNAT1 (AP) — Marge Schott agreed Hiesday
to sell control of the Cincinnati Reds for $67 million,
leaving her one step away from the end of her tumul
tuous 15-year reign.
The other major league owners have to approve the
sale to Cincinnati financier Carl Lind
ner and two of the other limited part
ners, a process that usually takes 6-
15 months but is expected to move
quickly, perhaps with a vote as soon
as June.
Baseball had ordered her to sell
her controlling interest in the Reds
and end a tenure that included one
suspension for inflammatory re
marks and other disciplinary mea
sures, such as giving up day-to-day decision-mak
ing.
Lindner would become the team’s controlling part
ner. Limited partners George Strike and William Reik
also would be part of the new ownership group.
