The Stars spent most of the day working on drills and conditioning rather than jumping straight into scrimmage situations.
With NHL training camps such a shortened affair, it's tempting for many coaches to jump immediately into game situations, focusing on early scrimmages with the over-sized rosters to get their players up to game speed.
The Stars spent all day broken out into three groups on the first day of camp at the Cedar Park Center working on things like battle drills, defensive zone situations and conditioning skates, choosing to wait to start the scrimmage situations until the second day.
