Shocking Twist: Stars Part Ways with DeBoer After Promising 3 Seasons – What’s Next for the Team?
“The reality is, if you go back to last year’s playoffs, he’s lost six of seven games to Edmonton and we gave up two (goals) on two (shots) in an elimination game,” DeBoer said of Oettinger. “It was partly to spark our team and wake them up and partly knowing that status quo had not been working. And that’s a pretty big sample size.”
Two days later, DeBoer clarified those comments.
“No one is a bigger fan of Jake Oettinger than me, as a person or a goalie,” DeBoer said when the Stars held their end-of-season media availability on Saturday. “Does that mean he can’t be coached or he doesn’t have growth in him? Absolutely [not], he’s a young goalie.”
