The two teams were scoreless past the halfway mark of the second period, but Oettinger then got beaten twice in 83 seconds by Peyton Krebs and Ryan McLeod, and the Stars never recovered.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger is undefeated to open the 2024-25 campaign, posting a 4-0-0 record to go with a 1.48 GAA and one shutout. Even without a back-to-back over the Stars' next three contests, the team could still give the 25-year-old Oettinger a night off and let Scott Wedgewood take a start, perhaps versus the Bruins on Thursday. Still, Oettinger should see the bulk of the workload this year and could play upward of 60 games this year.

Oettinger made 30 saves in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Oilers.

Leon Draisaitl spoiled his shutout bid late in the third period, but otherwise Oettinger delivered a performance worthy of the eight-year, $66 million contract extension he signed earlier this week. Through four starts to begin the season, the 25-year-old netminder is a perfect 4-0-0 with a 1.48 GAA and .953 save percentage.
