The Stars will turn to Oettinger between the pipes for the second straight game when they face off against the Buffalo Sabres. On Saturday, Oettinger played his first game after signing a massive eight-year, $66 million contract extension and proved his worth by saving 30 of 31 shots (.968 SV%) in a 4-1 win over the Edmonton Oilers. The 25-year-old Oettinger has been outstanding early in the 2024-25 season, boasting an impressive 1.48 GAA and .953 SV% in four games (4-0-0). The Stars enter the action on Tuesday as -144 road favorites against a Sabres club that has scored four or more goals in three straight games (1-1-1).
