Jake Oettinger News
Oettinger allowed two goals on 35 shots in the Stars loss to the Blackhawks on Sunday. Despite the loss and Anton Khudobin being available tonight, Oettinger will make his second straight start. So far this season, he has stopped 86 of the 94 shots (.915 SV%) that he's faced. With a quality matchup vs. the Blackhawks again, he's a worthwhile early-week spot-start option.
Oettinger stopped all 10 shots that he faced after replacing Anton Khudobin in the Stars' loss in Carolina on Saturday. In his first two appearances in the NHL, Oettinger has stopped 30 of the 33 shots (.909 SV%) that he's faced. On Tuesday, he'll see a Blue Jackets team that is fourth-worst in goal-scoring (2.30) right now but will get Patrik Laine making his debut tonight.
