Oettinger posted a 34-save shutout in Friday's 1-0 shootout win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Neither team could score in 65 minutes of play, as Oettinger and Marc-Andre Fleury were clinical in goal. Oettinger had a number of highlight-reel saves to keep the score even against his childhood idol. In the shootout, Oettinger allowed Alex DeBrincat to score in the first round before stopping the next five shots to secure the win. This was Oettinger's second career shutout and his first of the season. He improved to 15-5-0 with a 2.36 GAA and a .921 save percentage in 22 appearances. The 23-year-old has won his last four games, and continued strong play would see him take a firmer grasp on the Stars' No. 1 job in net. A favorable matchup awaits if the Otter starts Sunday versus the Coyotes.
