The Stars' starter has been out since leaving a game on October 29th with a lower-body injury. He will not play Tuesday in Winnipeg but is still on course for a return according to his original timeline meaning the Stars will re-evaluate him after Tuesday's game and decide the next step from there. Oettinger has been on the ice and skating and hopes to be back as soon as possible as he is having an exceptional year, leading the NHL in both SV% (.952 SV%) and GAA (1.40).
