EDGE Analysis

Oettinger wasn't great in his last start Dec. 20 versus the Wild, surrendering four goals on just 23 shots, but he was still able to come away with a win thanks to fantastic goal support from his teammates. The 23-year-old netminder will try to secure a third straight victory in a home matchup with a Penguins club that's 10-3-3 on the road this year.

Oettinger allowed four goals on 23 shots in Monday's 7-4 win over the Wild.

The 23-year-old improved to 7-2-0 with a 2.24 GAA and a .922 save percentage in 10 appearances this season. With the NHL season on pause until after the holidays, Oettinger's next chance to start a game isn't until next Monday versus the Predators.

Oettinger will make back-to-back starts for the first time since late November, having split the workload with Braden Holtby.

Oettinger stopped 20 of 23 shots in Saturday's 4-3 overtime win over the Blackhawks.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger wasn't at his best, but the Stars' top line and power play bailed him out. The 23-year-old picked up his first win in his last three starts, improving to 6-2-0 with a 2.02 GAA and a .932 save percentage through nine outings. Head coach Rick Bowness may choose to ride the hot hand after having Oettinger split starts with Braden Holtby during the Stars' recent skid.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger will start the second half of a back-to-back after Braden Holtby couldn't end the team's losing streak Friday. Oettinger has allowed more than two goals just once this season, but it was in his last start Tuesday versus the Blues. He'll likely need some help from the Stars' offense, which has scored just three goals in the last four games.

Oettinger allowed four goals on 28 shots in Tuesday's 4-1 loss to the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger did well to keep things close through the first two periods, but he gave up three goals as the Blues ran away with it in the third. After opening his campaign with five straight wins, he's taken losses in his last two outings, though the Stars have scored just once in those games. He's posted a 1.88 GAA and a .938 save percentage. Oettinger was playing exceptionally well, so a little regression was to be expected, though fantasy managers will have to hope he levels off soon.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger was sharp in his last start Thursday against the Kings, stopping 37 of 39 shots, but he ultimately suffered his first loss of the campaign due to a lack of goal support from his teammates.

Oettinger took his first loss of the season, dropping to 5-1-0 with a 1.52 GAA and a .951 save percentage in seven appearances. Head coach Rick Bowness originally planned for Oettinger and Braden Holtby to each start twice this week -- Holtby's already played his two games, so Oettinger is likely to be in net Saturday against the Sharks to wrap up a road trip.
