2025 Fantasy Outlook
Some players crumble under the pressure of living up to a new contract, but Oettinger didn't do that in 2024-25. He signed an eight-year extension just after the start of the season, and that deal kicks in for 2025-26. He didn't rest on his laurels, putting up a 36-18-4 record with a 2.59 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 58 regular-season games. It's not the best Oettinger has done, but he remains among the top goalies in the league. He's reached the 30-win mark four years in a row and has never posted a save percentage lower than .905 in a full season. With a strong and deep Stars team in front of him, Oettinger is reliable in virtually all fantasy formats. Read Past Outlooks

Another high-scoring win
Oettinger stopped 35 of 39 shots in Saturday's 5-4 shootout win over the Avalanche.
ANALYSIS
Oettinger has allowed eight goals on 64 shots over his two starts this year, but the Stars have given him enough support to walk away with a pair of wins. The 26-year-old is talented enough to get on track in short order, so fantasy managers shouldn't fret about him allowing a lot of goals. The Stars have their home opener up next, as they'll host the Wild on Tuesday for a third straight divisional game to begin 2025-26.

Oettinger had an off year in 2023-24. Despite sitting sixth on the NHL win list (35), the 25-year-old netminder barely cracked the top-20 in GAA (2.72) and tied for 25th in save percentage (.905) among backstops with 25 or more starts. And his GSAx (goals saved above expectation) dropped from eight-best in the NHL in 2022-23 to 50th last year. Still, Oettinger is one of the best young goalies in the world - he has two All-Star appearances in his three full seasons, and he's already been in the top-five voting for the Vezina twice. Casey DeSmith is a sturdy, but unspectacular backup, so expect Oettinger to log 55-60 starts and get back into elite territory. He's in the top tier in the NHL and will only get better. Last year was a blip.

Latest Fantasy Rumors

Poised to start Monday
Oettinger is likely to get the starting nod against the Red Wings on the road Monday, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
This has the potential to be Oettinger's final regular-season appearance, as the Stars don't have anything to play for in terms of postseason positioning in these final two games. As such, it wouldn't be a shock to see Casey DeSmith between the pipes for Wednesday's road game versus Nashville. For the fourth straight season, the 26-year-old Oettinger has racked up at least 30 wins, posting a 36-16-4 record to go with a 2.48 GAA, .912 save percentage and two shutouts in 56 outings. Regardless of who starts Wednesday, it will be all Oettinger in the playoffs.
