The Dallas Stars secured a crucial 3-0 victory against the Minnesota Wild, fueled by goaltender Jake Oettinger's exceptional performance. This match marked Oettinger’s 12th career shutout, where he halted 32 shots, including key saves during periods of offensive stagnation from his own team.

Despite a lackluster start, the Stars' offense found its rhythm in the second half, with Wyatt Johnston breaking the deadlock through a power-play tip-in. Matt Duchene followed shortly after, extending the lead to 2-0, which Oettinger expertly safeguarded through the final period. The Stars' penalty kill was also impressive, going 4-for-4 against a Wild power play.
