Jake Oettinger Saves Stars, Dallas Ties Series in Brutal Game 2 | Episode 7049 | April 20th, 2026

The Dallas Stars answered in Game 2. Ryan and James react to Dallas’ 4-2 win over the Minnesota Wild, led by a stellar performance from Jake Oettinger and a much more physical, playoff-ready effort from the entire team. The guys discuss the turning point hit from Colin Blackwell, strong contributions from Arttu Hyry and Nils Lundkvist, improved special teams, and the ugly Marcus Foligno incident involving Thomas Harley. Plus, why this win felt huge, what still needs improvement at 5-on-5, and why the series feels completely different heading back to Minnesota.
