The Dallas Stars have recalled goaltender Jake Oettinger from the Texas Stars. Braden Holtby missed the morning skate for Dallas today with a lower-body injury, which led to the Oettinger callup. Dallas plays Philadelphia tonight and Oettinger will back up Anton Khudobin.
In 10 games this season with Texas, Oettinger has a 0.913 SV% and a 2.62 GAA. Oettinger was especially strong in net last night against Colorado saving 30 of 31 shots he faced despite the shootout loss. Before last night’s game against Colorado, Oettinger was having a rough stretch in which he posted less than a 0.
