The Dallas Stars held their morning skate at their practice facility in Frisco, Texas, because mechanical problems on the plane left them at the airport for nearly three hours. "It's only as big an issue as you make it," coach Lindy Ruff said. "It's just something you deal with and move on. We've had a lot of rest, so it's a little bit of an inconvenience." Forward Tyler Seguin arrived to Arizona on Monday and skated on his own. Forward Patrick Sharp (concussion) skated but will miss his 11th straight game. "He's close … no set timetable but I think he's sooner than later," Ruff said. "It could be as soon as the next game, it could be two or three games." Sharp turned 35-years-old Tuesday. Forward Antoine Roussel was placed on injured reserve, allowing the Stars to recall Jason Dickinson from Texas of the American Hockey League so they could dress 12 forwards. Roussel's move is retroactive to Dec. 20, so he could play against the Colorado Avalanche at American Airlines Center on Thursday. Goalie Kari Lehtonen will start for the Stars, who are 4-9-4 on the road.
