Big statement regarding Carey Price and the Dallas Stars

On the airwaves of Sportsnet, the excellent Jeff Marek made an interesting statement about Carey Price and the Dallas Stars.

The Stars have been enjoying success for a few seasons now, and Marek thinks he knows why.

They've found their Carey Price!

Young goaltender Jake Oettinger is truly impressive, especially in the playoffs, which leads Marek to flatly say this :

Interesting! Do you agree?

Oettinger, 24 years old, is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound goaltender who was drafted 26th overall (first round) in 2017.

In 144 career NHL games, he has a record of 81-35-20. That's extremely solid! (average of 2.4 and save percentage of 0.916)

In the playoffs, it's even more impressive!

1.000 in 2019-20

.954 in 7 games in 2021-22

.925 in 5 games currently in the 2023 playoffs.

Knowing all this, do you also believe that the Dallas Stars have found their Carey Price? Do you think Marek is exaggerating?
