Winnipeg Jets fans have showered Jake Oettinger with chants referring to his role as the USA Hockey backup goalie to Connor Hellebuyck during the 4 Nations Face-Off earlier this year

Just one win away from the Western Conference finals with a 3-1 series lead over the Winnipeg Jets, the Dallas Stars are in a comfortable spot. After Miro Heiskanen’s return Tuesday, the Stars have their full lineup featuring their previously injured players and trade deadline adds for the first time this season.

The Dallas Stars will have a chance at home to extend their NHL Western Conference playoffs series lead over the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday night, May 13.

In this edition, former Buffalo Sabres coach Don Granato writes about the Western Conference Second Round. The Dallas Stars lead the Winnipeg Jets 2-1 in the best-of-7 series entering Game 4 at American Airlines Center in Dallas on Tuesday (8 p.m. ET; ESPN, SN, TVAS, CBC).

The Jets will be looking at this game as an absolute must-win as they should with a 3-1 series deficit virtually sealing their fate. Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger has been sensational but has shown cracks with .908 save percentage in five home playoff starts.

Miro Heiskanen is expected to make his long-awaited return to the lineup Tuesday when the Dallas Stars host the Winnipeg Jets for Game 4 of their second-round series, Stars head coach Pete DeBoer told Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.

Dallas Stars defenseman Miro Heiskanen, who was injured in January, returned in Game 4 against the Winnipeg Jets.
