Heika’s Take: Stars ride Oettinger’s dazzling performance to Game 2 victory | Dallas Stars
Oettinger finished with 28 saves, 15 of which came in the first period, and that may have helped change this series. The Oilers were able to outlast the Stars in double overtime in Game 1, and then dominated the first period Saturday to send a message that there was a possibility they were just going to take the series over. But Oettinger refused to let that happen. While the puck largely stayed in the Stars’ end of the ice, Dallas mustered just four shots on net against Edmonton goalie Stuart Skinner. That created quite a bit of nervousness in the home crowd, and maybe even in the dressing room.
