TORONTO -- Lindy Ruff was out in the yard last week trying to fix his landscape lighting.

He could have hired a guy to do it, but that's not how the 56-year-old coach was raised.

"My job is to fix it," Ruff said. "Maybe sometimes that gets me in trouble, but I've just always felt I could do it. I don't ever want to look around and say that I need somebody else to fix that for me."

And that goes for his hockey team, as well.

Ruff is in the middle of a tough season where the Stars are falling far short of expectations.
