Excellent article from thewincolumn on just how otherworldly Oettinger was:

Goals against saved against expected in all situations:
Oettinger saved more than two goals per game above expected. Without him the Stars are likely swept, or at minimum out in 5. Just insane.
And Markstrom quietly put up an absolutely fantastic series. We cannot say enough about how important it was for him to be excellent given what was going on at the other end. If he were even marginally less excellent this could well be a post-mortem analysis.
