Oettinger will start for the fourth straight game in a rematch against the San Jose Sharks on Tuesday night.

Seguin (lower body) resumed skating on Monday.

Ty Dellandrea has been playing in Seguin's spot on the second line with Matt Duchene and Mason Marchment over the last few games since Seguin has been out of the lineup. Before his injury, Seguin was enjoying his best campaign in several years with 45 points (20G / 25A) in 58 games. Seguin's injury allowed the Stars to recall Logan Stankoven, who has been playing superbly on a line with Jamie Benn and Wyatt Johnston.

Seguin (lower body) is expected back before the end of the regular season.

Oettinger will start Tuesday in Colorado.

Oettinger will likely start in the back end of a back-to-back on Tuesday when the Stars face off against their divisional rival, the Colorado Avalanche. The 24-year-old Oettinger was excellent in his last outing, albeit lightly tested, saving 20 of 21 shots (.952 SV) in a 2-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. The Stars last played the Avalanche on January 4th, a 5-4 overtime loss with Scott Wedgewood between the pipes.

Seguin (lower body) is out on Monday and considered week-to-week.

Seguin was replaced on the second line by Ty Dellandrea on Saturday, a move that will likely remain for the foreseeable future as he will be out of the lineup on a week-to-week basis. Before his injury, Seguin was enjoying his best campaign in several years with 45 points (20G / 25A) in 58 games. Seguin's injury allowed Logan Stankoven to make his NHL debut and play on a line with Jamie Benn and Wyatt Johnston.
