DALLAS - It's been a long road back.
From an unbearable wait on the sidelines, missing 42 games in all thanks to a blood clot last year, to being healthy, but sitting out the first three of the new campaign, Michael Stone is ready to put it all behind him and begin a new chapter tonight in The Big D.
Stone will make his long-awaited regular-season debut tonight as the Flames kick off a three-game road trip in Dallas to face the Stars (TV: Sportsnet 360; Radio: Sportsnet960 THE FAN).
