Pete DeBoer, Dallas Stars still getting accustomed to late Stanley Cup playoff starts

Stars coach Pete DeBoer admitted that getting used to the late starts in the series is an acquired taste. “The late starts I’m still getting used to,” DeBoer said, “walking out of the rink at 2 a.m. for a 9 a.m. start.
