NHL Playoffs Pick Lets Face-Off
Dallas Stars at Calgary Flames
Stars ML @ +175
Jake Oettinger. For 6 games, we’ve expected the Flames to break down the kid. For 6 games, we got proven wrong. Not today. Were betting on the Oettinger and the underdog Stars to steal game 7 in Calgary.
This 23-year old G has the highest save percentage of any playoff G with 2+ starts. Higher than Flames G Jacob Markstrom, who’s been excellent himself. He’s allowed only 1.67 goals/game, compared to the Flames 3.55/game in the regular season. Even in the 4-1 loss, Oettinger saved 50/53 shots, excluding an empty netter. His worst game SV%-wise is still at a healthy .934, which would rank him 2nd-best among qualifying goalies in the regular season.
The Stars offense has been hit-or-miss this series, but Oettinger will keep his team in it.
Big Prediction: 3-2 Stars,
