Jake Oettinger has second straight shutout in the Stars' 4-0 victory over the Sabres

Dallas Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger delivered his second consecutive shutout, blanking the Buffalo Sabres 4-0 in a dominant home win for the Stars. The victory marked the team’s second straight after a slow start to the season, with Tyler Seguin and Wyatt Johnston still searching for their first goals of the 2026-27 campaign.

Meanwhile, the Sabres—who had rallied from a two-goal deficit to beat the Minnesota Wild in overtime just two nights prior—faced their first loss of the season before the Stars’ strong performance. Buffalo’s recent resilience, including a late comeback against the Wild, had kept them unbeaten at home, but the Stars’ offensive firepower proved too much on Thursday night.

The game also highlighted the Sabres’ depth, as they navigated injuries and lineup adjustments while chasing their third consecutive win. For Dallas, the focus now shifts to sustaining this momentum as they prepare for their next Western Conference challenge.
