Oettinger allowed five goals on 27 shots in Saturday's 5-4 loss to the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger gave up three goals in the first period, and then the Stars' defensive blunders took over as the Oilers struck twice more in the middle frame. This was Oettinger's second road loss in a row, and he's given up five goals in each of those games. He's down to a 30-14-2 record with a 2.48 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 46 starts. Casey DeSmith will likely get the nod Sunday in Vancouver, but look for Oettinger to start in Winnipeg on Friday after a rare four-day gap in the schedule, which should allow him to mentally reset after this poor outing.

Oettinger will defend the road cage Saturday against the Oilers, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger has won three consecutive games while turning aside 94 of 101 shots on net (.931 save percentage) in that span. The Oilers rank ninth in the NHL with 3.23 goals per game this season, but they're 2-6-0 in their last eight outings. Oettinger has a 4-2-1 record, .915 save percentage and 2.44 GAA over seven career appearances against Edmonton.

Oettinger stopped 26 of 28 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

The Flames opened up a 2-0 lead but couldn't stretch it beyond that. The Stars then pulled off a comeback, giving Oettinger his fourth win in five outings. While he's allowed 15 goals in that span, he continues to give his team a chance to compete. The 26-year-old has reached the 30-win mark for the fourth year in a row at 30-13-2 with a 2.42 GAA and a .911 save percentage over 45 starts. The Stars begin a challenging four-game road trip with a back-to-back, which sees them visit the Oilers on Saturday and the Canucks on Sunday. Look for Oettinger and Casey DeSmith to split those starts.

Oettinger will defend the home crease versus Calgary on Thursday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger will attempt to win his third game in a row. He has stopped 68 of 73 shots (.932 save percentage), in victories over St. Louis and Los Angeles in the last week. Oettinger is 29-13-2 with a 2.44 GAA and a .911 save percentage over 44 outings this season. The Flames are tied for last in NHL scoring this season, generating a paltry 2.59 goals per game.

Oettinger allowed three goals on 42 shots in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

The Stars' power play was a perfect 4-for-4 in the contest, giving Oettinger plenty of support in the win. He's won three of his last four outings, though he's given up 13 goals on 138 shots in that span. The Stars are clearly missing Miro Heiskanen's defensive presence -- Oettinger has faced an average of 33.1 shots per game across his seven appearances in Heiskanen's absence, compared to an average of 25.5 shots against per game prior to the defenseman's injury. Still, Oettinger is a reliable goalie and is at 29-13-2 with a 2.44 GAA and a .911 save percentage across 44 starts this season. The Stars have another tough came next on the schedule when they host the Devils on Tuesday.

Oettinger will patrol the home crease against St. Louis on Sunday, according to Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger is coming off a 29-save performance in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kings. He has a 28-13-2 record with one shutout, a 2.42 GAA and a .910 save percentage through 43 appearances this season. St. Louis is tied for 20th in the league with 2.84 goals per game in 2024-25 and posted a 4-1 win over the Kings on Saturday.

Oettinger stopped 29 of 31 shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger struggled in his last start versus the Blue Jackets, but he handled things well Friday to pick up his second in in three starts. He's allowed 10 goals in that span on a total of 96 shots, so he hasn't been at his best since the 4 Nations Face-Off. Oettinger is now 28-13-2 with a 2.42 GAA and a .910 save percentage. The Stars continue their four-game homestand against the surging Blues on Sunday.

Oettinger will defend the home net versus Los Angeles on Friday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger was shaky in his last start, allowing five goals on 28 shots in a 6-4 loss in Columbus. Oettinger is having a strong campaign in 2024-25, going 27-13-2 with a 2.43 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 42 appearances. The Kings are generating 2.89 goals per game, 17th in the NHL this season.

Oettinger stopped 23 of 28 shots in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Blue Jackets. The sixth goal was an empty-netter with 32 seconds left in the third period.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger was beaten just 30 seconds into the game by Kirill Marchenko, and things went downhill from there. He allowed two goals in each of the first and second frames and also conceded a goal in the early stages of the third. This was only the third time he gave up five or more goals in a game this season, and the star goaltender will aim to bounce back the next time he's tabbed with defending the Stars' crease. Dallas' upcoming two games will be against the Kings and Blues on Friday and Sunday, respectively.

Oettinger will start in Tuesday's road game against the Blue Jackets, Sean Shapiro of DLLS Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis
