Stars, Jets Set for Clash of Playoff Goaltenders
Dallas Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger led his team to a 4-2 Game 7 victory over the Colorado Avalanche, posting a .911 save percentage in the series and helping the Stars advance to the Western Conference finals for the second consecutive year. Oettinger's steady playoff play sets up a highly anticipated matchup against Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck, the reigning Vezina Trophy winner. Hellebuyck struggled on the road in the first round against the St. Louis Blues, being pulled in all three St. Louis games and allowing four or more goals in seven straight road playoff contests, but remained undefeated at home with a dramatic double-overtime Game 7 win. Despite his accolades, Hellebuyck's postseason save percentage (.830) and goals-against average (3.85) are the lowest among remaining starting goalies. Jets coach Scott Arniel has defended Hellebuyck, attributing the team’s struggles to defensive breakdowns rather than goaltending alone. The Stars and Jets will now face off in a series featuring two goalies under pressure and with contrasting playoff records.
