• Stars' Jake Oettinger: Stumbles in road loss

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Oettinger allowed five goals on 27 shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Oilers. Oettinger gave up three goals in the first period, and then the Stars' defensive blunders took over as the Oilers struck twice more in the middle frame. This was Oettinger's second road loss in a row, and he's given up five goals in each of those games. He's down to a 30-14-2 record with a 2.48 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 46 starts. Casey DeSmith will likely get the nod Sunday in Vancouver, but look for Oettinger to start in Winnipeg on Friday after a rare four-day gap in the schedule, which should allow him to mentally reset after this poor outing.

The Stars begin a challenging four-game road trip with a back-to-back, which sees them visit the Oilers on Saturday and the Canucks on Sunday. Look for Oettinger and Casey DeSmith to split those starts.

• Stars' Jake Oettinger: Stands tall in win

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Oettinger allowed three goals on 42 shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Blues. The Stars' power play was a perfect 4-for-4 in the contest, giving Oettinger plenty of support in the win. He's won three of his last four outings, though he's given up 13 goals on 138 shots in that span. The Stars are clearly missing Miro Heiskanen's defensive presence -- Oettinger has faced an average of 33.1 shots per game across his seven appearances in Heiskanen's absence, compared to an average of 25.5 shots against per game prior to the defenseman's injury. Still, Oettinger is a reliable goalie and is at 29-13-2 with a 2.44 GAA and a .911 save percentage across 44 starts this season. The Stars have another tough game next on the schedule when they host the Devils on Tuesday.
