Stars stun the Jets in Game 4 and are now just 1 win away from the Western Conference Final

It's all over! The Dallas Stars owe goaltender Jake Oettinger a couple cold ones this evening after his brilliant performance in Game 4 against the Winnipeg Jets.

The Stars earned themselves a 3-1 victory thanks in large part to Oettinger and to forward Mikael Granlund and his hat trick performance.

The Stars are now just one win away from clinching a spot in the Western Conference Final as the series shifts back to Winnipeg for Game 5.

We're early on in Game 4 between the Dallas Stars and Winnipeg Jets and... well... Connor Hellebuyck is the story once again. And that's not a good thing...

The Jets goaltender has struggled this post-season, especially on the road, and his first goal against tonight doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Watch Stars forward Mikael Granlund snipe this past an off-balance Hellebuyck with ease:

I realize that this shot comes from right down the middle, but... Hellebuyck's gotta have that. Pure and simple. 

In response to Hellebuyck's troubles, Stars fans have decided to remind who who the better netminder has been this post-season:

Otter, of course, being Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger. 

Pretty savage, but they ain't wrong... at least in this series so far.
