EDGE Analysis
Oettinger enters the playoffs on a three-game losing streak, allowing 14 goals and 93 shots (.849 save percentage). He needs to turn things around against a tough Colorado team. The Avalanche ranked sixth in the NHL with 3.33 goals per game during the 2024-25 regular season.

Oettinger stopped 17 of 22 shots before he was pulled from Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Oettinger probably shouldn't have been starting in the regular-season finale, but he got the nod anyway. He wasn't able to shake his recent skid, which is up to four straight losses (0-3-1), a span in which he's allowed 17 goals on 134 shots. Oettinger ends the regular season at 36-18-4, one win shy of his career high from 2022-23, and he also posted a 2.59 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 58 starts. He'll be the man between the pipes for the Stars' playoff run, which begins with Game 1 versus the Avalanche on Saturday.

Oettinger will defend the road crease against Nashville on Wednesday, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Oettinger and Casey DeSmith have alternated starts in recent weeks as the year winds down. However, Oettinger will draw a second consecutive start to close out the regular season. Over three starts against Nashville this year, he's gone 2-1-0 with a 2.36 GAA and .922 save percentage.

Oettinger stopped 31 of 36 shots in Monday's 6-4 loss to the Red Wings, with Detroit's final goal getting scored into an empty net.
EDGE Analysis
The Stars took a 3-2 lead into the third period, but another late fade handed the team its sixth straight loss as Dallas limps toward the postseason. Oettinger has three of those decisions on his ledger, giving up 12 goals on 112 shots in that time while going 0-2-1. The 26-year-old netminder remains stuck on 36 wins, one short of his career high.

Oettinger will serve as the starting goaltender for Monday's road game against Detroit, Brien Rea of FanDuel Sports Network Southwest reports.
EDGE Analysis
After putting together a six-game winning streak between late March and early April, Oettinger has gone 0-1-1 with a 3.47 GAA and .908 save percentage over his last two appearances. However, he was successful at home against the Red Wings on Jan. 19, turning aside 33 of 34 shots (.971 save percentage) en route to a 4-1 victory.

Oettinger stopped 31 of 35 shots in Thursday's 4-0 loss to the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Oettinger didn't have his best performance Thursday, though to be fair, the entire Stars team looked overmatched in this 4-0 defeat. Oettinger has dropped his last two starts, but fantasy managers shouldn't be overly concerned by his performances. This was the first time Oettinger posted a save percentage below the .910 mark since March 18.

Oettinger will tend the twine at home against Winnipeg on Thursday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.
EDGE Analysis
Oettinger hasn't lost in regulation over his last eight appearances, going 6-0-2 with a 2.11 GAA and .936 save percentage. With the playoffs around the corner, the Stars have been rotating their backstops, so fantasy managers should probably expect to see Casey DeSmith in the crease at home against Utah on Saturday. Still, once the postseason begins, it figures to be all Oettinger, all the time.

Oettinger made 38 saves on 41 shots on net in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Oettinger kept the Stars' net clean for the first two periods before conceding two goals in the first five minutes of the third. He then surrendered the OT winner to Marco Rossi just under a minute into the extra period. Overall, the 26-year-old Oettinger has a 36-15-4 record with a 2.45 GAA and a .912 save percentage. As the regular season winds down and the Stars have clinched a playoff spot, Oettinger should alternate starts with Casey DeSmith to round out the year. When he does start in the last week-plus, Oettinger has a high floor in fantasy.

Oettinger will defend the road net against Minnesota on Sunday, according to Michael Russo of The Athletic.
EDGE Analysis
Oettinger will get the second half of Dallas' back-to-back after Casey DeSmith occupied the home crease in Saturday's game versus Pittsburgh. The 26-year-old Oettinger has stopped 180 of 190 shots during his six-game winning streak. He has a 36-15-3 record with two shutouts, a 2.45 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 54 appearances this season. Minnesota ranks 28th in the league with 2.68 goals per game in 2024-25.

Oettinger stopped 28 shots in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
Steven Stamkos opened the scoring early in the second period by sneaking a sharp-angle shot past Oettinger, but the 26-year-old netminder shut the door the rest of the way. His win streak stands at six, a stretch in which Oettinger has delivered a stellar 1.66 GAA and .947 save percentage as the Stars try to catch the Jets for the top seed in the Western Conference.
