Tiefensee was shipped down to AHL Texas on Thursday.
Tiefensee was brought up after Jake Oettinger (lower body) was ruled out for Tuesday's preseason tilt and is now heading back to the minors. At this point, fantasy players should anticipate Tiefensee spending the entire season in the minors, making him a non-factor in fantasy contests, especially redraft formats.

Tiefensee was recalled from AHL Texas and added to the roster for Wednesday's home preseason game against the Wild.
Jake Oettinger is slated to play all of Wednesday's preseason matchup. Tiefensee was loaned to Texas on Tuesday, but he'll be available Wednesday, at least in a depth capacity. Regardless of whether Tiefensee plays against Minnesota, he'll presumably begin the 2026-27 regular season in the minors.

Stars' Arno Tiefensee: Tending to injury
Rotowire
Tiefensee (upper body) will miss Monday's preseason contest against the Blues, per Owen Newkirk of DLLS Sports.
Tiefensee will be sidelined Monday after he was spotted icing an area near his neck. The 24-year-old netminder had a tough go of things in his first season with AHL Texas, where he compiled a 10-7-0 record, an .892 save percentage and a 3.30 GAA across 20 regular-season appearances. He was replaced on the roster by Brandon Halverson, and until we hear an update regarding Tiefensee's health, expect to see him out of the lineup. His next chance to return is Wednesday against the Wild.
