Oettinger earns 17th career shutout as Stars beat Sharks 5-0; San Jose’s Celebrini scratched
Jake Oettinger made history as he earned his 17th career shutout, allowing just 14 shots, while leading the Dallas Stars to a convincing 5-0 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Monday night. This marked the Stars' first win of the season. The Sharks were without their star center, Macklin Celebrini, who was scratched from the game due to a lower-body injury.
Jamie Benn led the scoring for Dallas with a goal and an assist, while Miro Heiskanen, Joel Kiviranta, Jason Robertson, and Mikko Rantanen also found the back of the net. Yaroslav Askarov managed to keep the Sharks in the game with 21 saves. Celebrini, who was recently named San Jose's captain, was present for warmups but left the ice earlier than usual.
The 20-year-old Ty Dellandrea made his season debut in place of Celebrini, who had assisted on Igor Chernyshov's overtime goal during San Jose's 2-0 win in the previous game. Celebrini had recently signed a five-year, $94 million contract extension with the Sharks.
