Oettinger will protect the road goal Thursday versus the Lightning, Owen Newkirk of the Stars' radio network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger has a 5-3-0 record with a 2.10 GAA and a .927 save percentage through eight games in March. The Lightning are always a threat to score often, so Oettinger is likely a middle-tier goalie option in fantasy Thursday.

Oettinger turned aside 29 of 32 shots in a 4-3 overtime win over Carolina on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger lost the lead with 4:14 left in regulation on a Jani Hakanpaa blast, but Dallas' Jamie Benn picked him up with the overtime winner at 2:16 of the extra session. Oettinger has won his last four starts, although he did get tagged with a relief loss during that stretch. The 22-year-old rookie is now 10-6-6 on the year with a 2.26 GAA and .915 percentage.

Oettinger will start Monday's game against Carolina, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger was tagged with a loss in relief after allowing three goals to the Red Wings in his last appearance, but he's won each of his last three starts, allowing just four goals over those three wins. The impressive rookie (2.23 GAA, .916 save percentage) will have his work cut out for him Monday against the Hurricanes' 11th-ranked offense, which is scoring 3.17 goals per game.

Oettinger allowed three goals on 13 shots in relief of Anton Khudobin in Thursday's 7-3 loss to the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger was on the hook for the decisive goal, so he took the loss Thursday. The 22-year-old dropped to 9-6-6 with a 2.23 GAA and a .916 save percentage through 24 appearances this year. With both goalies struggling Thursday, it's unclear who will get the start for the Stars as they close a four-game series with the Red Wings on Saturday.

Oettinger allowed two goals on 26 shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger was given all the support he needed in the first period, as the Stars led 3-0 after 20 minutes. The 22-year-old goalie did his part and earned the win, improving to 9-5-6 on the year. He has a 2.15 GAA and a .919 save percentage through 23 appearances. Oettinger and Anton Khudobin have both played well in the crease for the Stars this season.

Oettinger will patrol the crease during Tuesday's home game versus the Red Wings, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger has been razor sharp recently, picking up back-to-back wins over the Blue Jackets while posting a highly impressive 1.00 GAA and .950 save percentage. The 22-year-old backstop will try to secure his ninth victory of the season in a favorable home matchup with a Detroit team that's 6-14-3 on the road this year.

Oettinger stopped 21 of 22 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger had the Blue Jackets' number all year -- he went 5-0-1 against them with a shutout in six starts. He only allowed 10 goals in those games. The 22-year-old netminder improved to 8-5-6 with a 2.16 GAA and a .919 save percentage through 22 outings overall. Head coach Rick Bowness clearly liked the matchup. The Stars' next four games are all against the Red Wings, which makes both Oettinger and Anton Khudobin favorable goalies to roster in the upcoming week.

Oettinger will protect the home net in Saturday's game versus the Blue Jackets, Bruce LeVine of Dallas Stars Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger has been a bit unlucky this season. His statistics are impressive, as he's posted a .917 save percentage and a 2.22 GAA through 21 appearances, but his 7-5-6 record is less favorable. The 22-year-old beat Columbus on Thursday night, steering away 17 of 18 shots, so he'll aim to keep the momentum rolling Saturday.

Oettinger saved 17 of 18 shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger didn't face much of a challenge Thursday. He allowed an early goal to Jack Roslovic before locking things down for the win. The 22-year-old Oettinger improved to 7-5-6 with a 2.22 GAA and a .917 save percentage in 21 outings. With the recent news that Ben Bishop (knee) won't return this season, Oettinger and Anton Khudobin are locked in as the Stars' top two goalies for the stretch run.

Oettinger will guard the home cage during Thursday's matchup with the Blue Jackets, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

EDGE Analysis

Oettinger hasn't played since April 6 versus the Blackhawks, when he surrendered three goals on 27 shots en route to a 4-2 defeat. He'll try to snap his two-game losing streak in a home matchup with a Columbus club that's 7-12-2 on the road this year.
