Oettinger stopped 24 of 25 shots in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger had lost his lat three outings (0-2-1) while allowing nine goals on 59 shots in that span. While he had a fairly easy matchup Sunday, he needed to put in a good performance to get himself back on track, and that's just what he did. The 26-year-old netminder is up to 17-9-1 with a 2.38 GAA and a .909 save percentage over 27 starts this season. Oettinger will likely get the nod for Tuesday's favorable home matchup versus the Sabres.

Oettinger will guard the road goal against the Blackhawks on Sunday, according to Owen Newkirk of DLLS Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger is coming off a 15-save effort in a 3-2 overtime loss to Minnesota on Friday. He has a 16-9-1 record with one shutout, a 2.44 GAA and a .908 save percentage through 26 appearances this season. Chicago ranks 29th in the league with 2.56 goals per game in 2024-25.

Oettinger stopped 15 of 18 shots in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild.

EDGE Analysis

The Stars controlled the pace of the game, but the Wild scored twice in a 57-second span in the third period. Oettinger then let in the decisive goal to Brock Faber 35 seconds into overtime. This was Oettinger's third straight loss, with the Stars being outscored 11-6 in that span. The team has gone seven consecutive games without scoring more than three goals, which has put a lot of pressure on the goalies. The Stars could have a chance to break that rut in Chicago on Sunday.

Oettinger will defend the home crease versus Minnesota on Friday, per Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger is on a two-game losing streak, giving up six goals on only 41 shots. The 26-year-old goaltender is 16-9-0 with a 2.42 GAA and a .910 save percentage this season. The Wild are averaging 2.94 goals per game this season but will be without their star Kirill Kaprizov, who is out with a lower-body injury.

Oettinger permitted two goals on 29 shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Rangers. The third goal was an empty-netter.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger took his fifth loss in his last eight outings, though this one wasn't his fault. The Rangers got to him twice in the first period after Roope Hintz opened the scoring, but the Stars failed to pull even over the final 40 minutes. Oettinger is down to 16-9-0 with a 2.42 GAA and a .910 save percentage through 25 appearances. The Stars' last game before the holiday break is on the road Monday against a red-hot Utah team, so Oettinger may be a bit of a risky fantasy play for that matchup.

Oettinger will be between the pipes for Friday's home game against the Rangers, Brien Rea of FanDuel Sports Network Southwest reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger will jump right back into the crease after getting the hook against the Leafs on Wednesday. The matchup Friday will be the netminder's eighth straight appearance, and he's posted a 3-4-0 record and 2.57 GAA in his last seven outings. While Oettinger hasn't been his usual dominant self, he clearly is going to be given time to work through any issues, leaving Casey DeSmith to feature primarily during back-to-backs.

Oettinger allowed four goals on 12 shots before being replaced by Casey DeSmith to begin the third period of Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

EDGE Analysis

It was a rough way for the goalie to celebrate his 26th birthday, as he got beaten more than three times for the first time since Nov. 25. Oettinger may simply need a breather -- he's started eight of Dallas' first nine games in December, going 4-4-0 with a 2.36 GAA and .901 save percentage.

Oettinger is set to start at home against Toronto on Wednesday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger has won his past two starts while stopping 40 of 42 shots. He's 16-7-0 with a 2.32 GAA and a .913 save percentage in 23 appearances this campaign. Oettinger will be seeking his first career victory against the Maple Leafs -- he's 0-2-0 with a 3.07 GAA and a .910 save percentage across two regular-season outings versus Toronto.

Oettinger stopped 25 shots in Monday's 3-1 win over the Capitals.

EDGE Analysis

Dylan Strome tipped home a Jakob Chychrun point shot late in the first period, but Oettinger shut the door the rest of the way. The 25-year-old netminder has allowed three goals or less in eight straight starts, posting a 2.14 GAA and a .916 save percentage over that stretch, and he's up to 16 wins on the season -- second in the NHL behind only Connor Hellebuyck's 19.

Oettinger will get the starting nod at home versus the Capitals on Monday, Brien Rea of FanDuel Sports Network Southwest reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger will make his sixth straight appearance between the pipes for Dallas, having posted a 2-3-0 record, 2.42 GAA and .897 save percentage in his last five outings. While the backstop has secured 15 wins in 22 starts, he still trails Winnipeg's Connor Hellebuyck for the NHL lead (19). If Oettinger continues to play at this level, he should be in the mix for Vezina Trophy consideration.
