Oettinger will return to the crease after saving 24 of 26 shots (.923 SV%) in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday. The Stars are -174 home favourites on Friday when they welcome the Calgary Flames, whom they defeated 4-3 on November 1st when Oettinger saved 44 of 47 shots (.936 SV%) in a 4-3 victory. That said, Oettinger has been significantly worse on home ice this season, posting a 2.82 GAA and .898 SV%, compared to the stellar 2.14 GAA and .935 SV% he sports on the road.

Harley has not played since November 12, when he exited the game with an upper-body injury, and will be back in the Stars lineup on Wednesday against the Vegas Golden Knight. In 14 games, Harley has five points (3G / 2A) and will replace Joel Hanley in the lineup if he can play.

Oettinger will return to the crease after serving as the backup to Scott Wedgewood on Monday in the Stars' 6-3 victory over the New York Rangers. The Stars have been keen on managing Oettinger's workload this season as the 24-year-old netminder was due for a rest after playing three consecutive games (2-1-0), posting an out-of-character .876 SV%. The last time Oettinger had four or more days of rest between games, he saved 38 of 39 shots (.974 SV%). In his only matchup against the Vegas Golden Knights this season, also after four days of rest, he saved 32 of 34 shots (.941 SV%) in a 3-2 shootout loss.

Oettinger will go for his fourth-straight win Saturday after winning his last game vs. Arizona where he stopped 23 of 26 shots (.885 SV%). The 24-year-old has been one of the NHL's best goaltenders yet again in 2023-24, with his impressive 8-2-1 record, .926 SV%, and 2.26 GAA. He gets to take on the Colorado Avalanche, who have won two-straight and are fifth in the NHL in goals per game (3.67).

Harley left the Stars game on Sunday against the Minnesota Wild, playing only 11:19, when he was boarded by Brandon Duhaime. Duhaime received a major penalty and was ejected from the game. Joel Hanley replaced Harley in the Stars lineup on Tuesday and is expected to do so again on Saturday. In his first season as a full-time NHLer, Harley has five points (3G / 2A) in 14 games.

On the back end of a back-to-back, DeSmith will start for the Canucks on Thursday when they visit the Calgary Flames. DeSmith has seen a fair share of action between the pipes as the Canucks' backup this season and has performed admirably when called upon, showcasing a 2.67 GAA and .916 SV% through six games (4-0-1). Having played last night, the Canucks enter action as +124 road underdogs but are facing a Flames team that is 3-6-1 in their last 10 and ranks fifth worst in the league offensively (2.60 GF / GP).

Steel has yet to score this season but has an assist, 14 SOG and a -1 plus/minus through 10 games played but will be the odd man out of the Stars' lineup Tuesday vs. Arizona. He will be replaced by Ty Dellandrea on Dallas' fourth line.

After losing back-to-back games for the first time this season, Oettinger has rebounded nicely, saving 50 of 55 shots (.909 SV%) in his two games since (2-0-0). Oettinger will look to extend his winning streak on Tuesday as the Stars' starter against the Arizona Coyotes. The Central-Division-leading Stars are sizeable -235 home favourites against a Coyotes team that has impressed with an 8-6-0 record while ranking in the top half of the league offensively (3.36 GF / GP) and defensively (3.00 GA / GP).

Harley left the Stars game on Sunday against the Minnesota Wild, playing only 11:19, when he boarded by Brandon Duhaime. Duhaime received a major penalty and was ejected from the game. Joel Hanley will enter the Stars lineup on Tuesday against Arizona in Harley's absence. In his first season as a full-time NHLer, Harley has five points (3G / 2A) in 14 games.

Oettinger will return to the Stars' crease on Sunday after Scott Wedgewood got the nod for the front-end of Dallas' back-to-back last night in Winnipeg. Oettinger has so far delivered on his loft fantasy expectations this season, registering a .6-2-1 record to go along with a .933 SV% and a 2.10 GAA. He most recently stopped 27 of the 29 shots he faced in a 5-2 victory over the Blue Jackets on Thursday. Oettinger and the Stars (-110) draw a relatively tough matchup on the road on Sunday in Minnesota.

DeSmith will get the nod against the Habs on Sunday for the tail-end of Vancouver's back-to-back. True to form, DeSmith has been solid but not spectacular when called upon this reason, boasting a .911 SV% and a 2.82 GAA to go along with his 3-0-1 record across five appearances. He is coming off one of the best starts of his young season, when he allowed just two goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 5-2 victory over the Senators. DeSmith makes for a great spot start on Sunday with the Canucks being -160 road favourites in Montreal.

Duchene exited the Stars' Saturday night contest against the Vancouver Canucks late in the second period and did not return, ultimately missing the teams' Monday game against the Boston Bruins. Before his injury, Duchene was in the midst of a five-game point streak, tallying five points (2G / 3A) and seems to be finding his stride with the Stars.

Hellberg has become the go-to option between the pipes for the Penguins with Tristan Jarry (undisclosed) day-to-day and Alex Nedeljkovic (lower-body) already on long-term injured reserve. Thursday will mark the first start of the season for Hellberg, who has a 2.14 GAA and .929 SV% in two relief appearances. The 32-year-old Swedish goaltender has 25 NHL games under his belt (7-8-1), registering a 3.09 GAA and .888 SV%. The Penguins are +113 road underdogs against a Los Angeles Kings team playing the back end of a back-to-back.

After a 5-0-1 start to the season, Oettinger will look to snap a two-game losing streak as he will start for the Dallas Stars on Thursday. Oettinger is still sporting an impressive 2.11 GAA and .933 SV% through eight games (5-2-1) and has still managed an adequate .912 SV% during his losing streak. The Stars defeated the Blue Jackets on October 30th by a score of 5-3, a game where Oettinger saved 22 of 25 shots (.880 SV%). Oettinger and the Stars are -226 road favourites against the Blue Jackets, who have lost six of their last seven (1-3-3).

DeSmith has been serviceable when called upon for the Canucks and will start his fourth game of the season on Thursday against the Ottawa Senators. In his first season with the Canucks, DeSmith is sporting a 3.07 GAA and .905 SV% in four appearances (2-0-1). After seeing more regular action to start the season, DeSmith will be making his first appearance in the crease since October 28th, a game where he allowed four goals on 24 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to the New York Rangers. The Canucks have won four straight and are -120 road favourites against a Senators team that has lost five of their last seven (2-5-0).

Duchene exited the Stars' Saturday night contest against the Vancouver Canucks late in the second period and did not return, ultimately missing the teams' Monday game against the Boston Bruins. Before his injury, Duchene was in the midst of a five-game point streak, tallying five points (2G / 3A) and seems to be finding his stride with the Stars. He will be a game-time decision on Thursday against the Columbus Blue Jackets and should slot back in alongside Tyler Seguin and Mason Marchment if he is available to play.

Oettinger will be the starter for the Stars on Monday after suffering his first regulation loss of the season on Saturday, a 2-0 loss at the hands of the Vancouver Canucks. Loss aside, Oettinger has been reliable and consistent, giving the Stars a chance to win every night, sporting a 1.97 GAA and .938 SV% through seven games (5-1-1). Oettinger and the Stars will be challenged on Monday by the Eastern Conference-leading Boston Bruins, who are off to a blistering 9-1-1 start, outscoring opponents 35-21. That said, the Stars are -141 home favourites in what should be a low-scoring game between two of the top five defensive teams in the league.
