    • Holds on for win
      Oettinger allowed three goals on 31 shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 2.

      Advice: Oettinger blew a lead in Game 1, and the Avalanche nearly pulled off another comeback Thursday, but the 25-year-old held his ground this time. The Avalanche have already proven to be challenging -- Oettinger has given up seven goals over his last two games after giving up a total of 10 tallies over the final six contests of the first round. The series is even at one game apiece, with Game 3 scheduled for Saturday in Denver. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:57 pm
       
    • Draws Game 2 start
      Oettinger will guard the home goal versus the Avalanche in Thursday's Game 2, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Oettinger failed to protect a 3-0 lead in Tuesday's Game 1, but he'll get the chance to bounce back. The 25-year-old is 4-4 with a 2.15 GAA and a .915 save percentage through eight playoff outings. He has lost three of his four appearances against Colorado this season.

    • Between pipes against Stars
      Georgiev will tend the twine on the road in Game 2 against Dallas on Thursday, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports

      Advice: Georgiev is riding a five-game winning streak during which he's posted a 2.12 GAA and .921 save percentage. Even though the 28-year-old backstop stumbled in Game 1 of the Avalanche's first-round matchup with Winnipeg, coach Jared Bednar has stuck with Georgiev and will likely continue to do so even if he stumbles again. As such, fantasy players probably shouldn't expect to see Justus Annunen anytime soon. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:06 am
       
    • Falls in OT
      Oettinger allowed four goals on 26 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 Game 1 overtime loss to the Avalanche.

      Advice: Oettinger and the Stars jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first period. However, Colorado would tie the game with a pair of power-play markers in the second and a Nathan MacKinnon goal 39 seconds into the third before Miles Wood beat Oettinger for the game-winner in overtime. It's the first time that Oettinger's allowed more than two goals in a game since the first game of the opening round against Vegas. The 25-year-old netminder now sports a .915 save percentage with a 2.15 GAA through eight postseason contests. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:14 am
       
    • Rebounds after rough first period
      Georgiev stopped 19 of 22 shots in Tuesday's 4-3 Game 1 overtime win over the Stars.

      Advice: The Stars jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first period, scoring three times within 10 minutes in the frame. However, Georgiev held Dallas scoreless on the team's final 13 shots over the final two periods and overtime as the Avs rallied for a 4-3 overtime victory. It's the fifth straight win for Georgiev after he dropped the first game of Colorado's opening-round series versus Winnipeg. The 28-year-old netminder sports an .889 save percentage with a 2.94 GAA in the postseason. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:10 am
       
    • Starting Game 1
      Georgiev will start Tuesday on the road in Game 1 against Dallas, per Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports.

      Advice: Georgiev was a little shaky during Colorado's first-round series against the Jets, recording an .893 save percentage, but he still went 4-1 during the five-game series thanks to fantastic goal support from his teammates. The Stars are coming off a hard-fought seven-game series win over Vegas, so the Avalanche will have the upper hand in terms of rest early in on in the second round.

    • Gets nod for Game 1
      Oettinger will start Game 1 on Tuesday at home against Colorado in the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs, per Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.

      Advice: Oettinger was stellar in the first round against Vegas, recording a .925 save percentage and allowing only 14 goals in seven appearances. The 25-year-old will have a tough matchup against Colorado, who leads the league in playoff goals with 28 in only five games. The Stars will likely continue to ride Oettinger throughout their postseason run. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:00 am
       
    • Knocks out Vegas
      Oettinger stopped 22 of 23 shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 7.

      Advice: Things looked bleak for the Stars after they dropped the first two games of the series, but Oettinger steadied himself and the team by winning four of the last five contests. He's allowed two or fewer goals in six straight games and owns a 1.95 GAA and a .925 save percentage through seven playoff outings. Oettinger won't have much time to rest, as the Stars' second-round series versus the Avalanche begins in Dallas on Tuesday. Rotowire.com May 5, 8:24 pm
       
    • Tending twine in Game 7
