GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Stars' single-game road trip to Arizona got off to a late start Tuesday morning.
Mechanical issues delayed the Stars' morning flight to Phoenix and left coach Lindy Ruff's players having their morning skate in Frisco instead.
"It's only as big an issue as you make it," said Ruff, whose team was supposed to fly out at 8:30 a.m. but instead arrived in Phoenix at 4:50 p.m., just over two hours before faceoff. "After three days off, it's just something you deal with and move on. We've had a lot of rest, so it's just a little bit of an inconvenience.
