DALLAS — Tyler Seguin scored twice, Jake Oettinger made 34 saves in his 11th career regular-season shutout and the Dallas Stars beat the New York Islanders 3-0 on Saturday night.

Seguin shot a wrister from the high slot over Semyon Varlamov’s glove at 7:59 of the first period on a feed from behind the goal line by Mason Marchment.

Jamie Benn doubled Dallas’ lead midway through the second period, collecting a loose puck between the circles when neither Kyle Palmieri nor rookie Maxim Tsyplakov could maintain control and lifted it nto the net.

Seguin added an empty-net goal in the final minute. Marchment also assisted on Seguin’s late goal.

Oettinger’s career record in October games is now 11-1-1.

Varlamov stopped 24 shots.

Dallas defenseman Matt Dumba played only six first-period minutes because of a lower-body injury. Coach Pete DeBoer said Dumba will be evaluated on Monday.
