Jake Oettinger Tending Twine Friday vs. Blues Amidst January Struggles

Jake Oettinger will start in goal for the Dallas Stars at home against the Blues on Friday, marking his second start in a back-to-back after Casey DeSmith played Thursday. The 27-year-old netminder has faced a challenging January, posting a 2-4-1 record with a 3.31 GAA and an .868 save percentage across seven games. He will look to improve his form against a Blues team that has struggled offensively, scoring only 11 goals in their last six contests.
