Oettinger stopped 22 of 23 shots in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Wild.
Oettinger didn't face a lot of pressure early on. He gave up a goal to Kirill Kaprizov in the third period but held the fort after that to preserve the lead. This was Oettinger's third win in a row, and he's allowed exactly one goal in three of his last five outings. The 25-year-old netminder is now 9-3-0 with a 2.27 GAA and a .917 save percentage through 12 games this season. The Stars' next two games are home matchups versus the Ducks on Monday and the Sharks on Wednesday. Given the quality of those opponents, it wouldn't be surprising for Casey DeSmith to draw a start for one of those contests, especially since Oettinger has played a season-high five games in a row.
