Date News Advice
Oct. 16, 2026 DiPietro is expected to start on the road against Anaheim on Friday, per Adam Pellerin of NESN. - DiPietro is gearing up for his second outing of the season after he stopped 26 of 29 shots in a 4-1 loss to Minnesota on Oct. 3. The 27-year-old netminder excelled in the AHL during the 2025-26 regular season, posting a 1.91 GAA and a .930 save percentage in 45 outings, but he's searching for his first win at the NHL level. It might be difficult to get that victory over Anaheim, which is off to a strong start with a 4-2-0 record and an average of 3.33 goals per game. None
Oct. 3, 2026 DiPietro will guard the road goal versus the Wild on Saturday, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports. - DiPietro will handle the second half of a back-to-back after Jeremy Swayman started Friday versus the Jets. This will be DiPietro's fifth career NHL game and just the second since the start of 2025-26. He is set to be Swayman's backup for the year, though DiPietro may struggle to see much time behind a clear starter. None
Sept. 24, 2026 DiPietro will guard the road goal versus the Flyers in Thursday's preseason game, Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site reports. - DiPietro was busy in his first preseason game, stopping 30 of 32 shots Sunday versus the Capitals. He'll get a second appearance as he prepares for what will likely be his first full campaign in the NHL, serving as backup to Jeremy Swayman. None
Sept. 20, 2026 DiPietro will patrol the home crease in Sunday's preseason matchup against Washington, according to Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site. - DiPietro posted a superb 34-8-1 record with a 1.91 GAA and a .930 save percentage in 45 regular-season appearances for AHL Providence in 2025-26. He will likely begin the 2026-27 campaign as Jeremy Swayman's backup. None
April 12, 2026 DiPietro posted a 20-save shutout in AHL Providence's 1-0 win over Springfield on Sunday. - DiPietro has won 12 of his last 14 games, posting two shutouts in that span. He's been superb throughout the campaign with a 34-7-1 record, a 1.88 GAA and a .931 save percentage over a career-high 44 games. Providence looks set for a lengthy playoff run, so DiPietro probably won't be getting called up to the NHL unless absolutely necessary. None
March 14, 2026 DiPietro recorded a 13-save shutout in AHL Providence's 7-0 win over Hartford on Saturday. - DiPietro was barely tested in the blowout win. This was his second shutout of the season and the 11th of his AHL career. The 26-year-old goalie is 28-6-0 with a 1.80 GAA and a .936 save percentage over 36 appearances this season, which is his best in the AHL yet. None
Feb. 27, 2026 DiPietro was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports. - DiPietro was recalled on an emergency basis Tuesday and backed up Joonas Korpisalo on Thursday in Boston's 4-2 win over Columbus. DiPietro was called up as Jeremy Swayman was given the night off after winning Olympic gold for the United States on Sunday in Italy. None
Feb. 24, 2026 DiPietro was recalled from AHL Providence on Tuesday on an emergency basis, according to Scott McLaughlin of WEEI. - This is DiPietro's second call-up under emergency conditions in the last week, as he'll continue to help the Bruins in practice as a result of Jeremy Swayman and Joonas Korpisalo competing in the 2026 Winter Olympics. The NHL season resumes Wednesday, but the Bruins aren't back in action until Thursday versus Columbus, so Swayman should be back with the team by then after winning the gold medal Sunday. If that's the case, DiPietro will probably be sent back to Providence in the near future. None
Feb. 20, 2026 DiPietro was assigned to AHL Providence on Friday, Scott McLaughlin of WEEI reports. - DiPietro was recalled by Boston on an emergency basis Wednesday, but his return to the minors will allow him to play in games for Providence over the weekend. Over 28 appearances in the AHL this year, he's gone 21-5-0 with a 1.64 GAA and .942 save percentage. None
Feb. 18, 2026 DiPietro was recalled from AHL Providence on an emergency basis Wednesday. - The Bruins have resumed practicing with just over a week remaining before the NHL season resumes, and DiPietro will fill in for the team while Jeremy Swayman and Joonas Korpisalo are competing at the Olympics. It seems likely that DiPietro will return to the AHL once Swayman and Korpisalo rejoin the team. None
Jan. 17, 2026 DiPietro recorded a 21-save shutout in AHL Providence's 5-0 win over Cleveland on Saturday. - This was DiPietro's fifth win in his last six outings, and it's also his first shutout of the season. He's now at a 15-5-0 record with a 1.74 GAA and a .938 save percentage over 21 appearances. If the Bruins grow tired of Joonas Korpisalo in the backup role, DiPietro could be ready for a longer look at the NHL level, where he hasn't played since 2021-22. None
Nov. 7, 2025 DiPietro stopped 42 of 43 shots in AHL Providence's 2-1 win over Cleveland on Friday. - DiPietro has been superb for Providence so far, going 6-0-0 with a 2.18 GAA and a .929 save percentage in six starts. The 26-year-old is doing everything he can to force the Bruins' hands for a call-up, but there's no room for him in the NHL when both Jeremy Swayman and Joonas Korpisalo are healthy and playing well. At this point, DiPietro could be a trade chip for Boston to dangle in front of a team looking to upgrade its goaltending depth. None
Oct. 5, 2025 DiPietro was placed on waivers by the Bruins for the purpose of assignment to AHL Providence, Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site reports Sunday. - DiPietro had an excellent AHL season last year, going 26-8-7 with a 2.05 GAA and .927 save percentage. The Bruins will try to sneak him through waivers and allow him to start the season with AHL Providence, but he's got a chance to be claimed by a goalie-needy team in a busy day of waivers around the league. None
Sept. 27, 2025 DiPietro will defend the road net in preseason action against Philadelphia on Saturday. - DiPietro earned a 26-8-5 record with four shutouts, a 2.05 GAA and a .927 save percentage in 40 appearances with AHL Providence during the 2024-25 regular season.

June 30, 2025 DiPietro signed a two-year, $1.625 million contract with Boston on Monday. - Interestingly, DiPietro's contract is a one-way deal which will make it more difficult to move him to the minors this upcoming season. The Bruins already have both Jeremy Swayman and Joonas Korpisalo under contract, so there figures to be significant competition at the goalie position during training camp. None
Feb. 21, 2025 DiPietro was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports. - DiPietro was recalled Tuesday as Jeremy Swayman was on the United States roster at the 4 Nations Face-Off. DiPietro is having a great season at the AHL level this season, going 17-7-4 with a 2.00 GAA and a .928 save percentage across 28 starts. None
Feb. 18, 2025 DiPietro will join the Bruins as a practice player, the team announced Tuesday. - Jeremy Swayman remains with Team USA for the 4 Nations Face-Off, so the Bruins brought DiPietro up from AHL Providence to fill out the roster. Once Swayman rejoins the squad, look for the 25-year-old DiPietro to head back to the minors where he figures to spend the bulk of the remaining games. None
Jan. 24, 2025 DiPietro was sent to AHL Providence on Friday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports. - DiPietro was recalled by Boston on Thursday, and he served as the backup goaltender during the team's 2-0 win over Ottawa. However, he'll head back to the minors a day later, which signals that Jeremy Swayman (upper body) could be available for the Bruins' game against the Avalanche on Saturday. None
Jan. 23, 2025 DiPietro was recalled from AHL Providence on Thursday. - DiPietro was sent down by the Bruins ahead of the regular season, but he'll rejoin the NHL club for the first time this year after head coach Joe Sacco said that Jeremy Swayman was dealing with an injury following his exit from Wednesday's game against the Devils. DiPietro has made 22 appearances for Providence this year, going 14-5-3 with a 1.95 GAA. None
Oct. 4, 2024 DiPietro was placed on waivers Friday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet. - DiPietro has played in three NHL games with the Canucks, his last one being in the 2021-22 season when he gave up three goals on 17 shots and took the loss. DiPietri was solid in 30 AHL appearances in 2023-24, going 18-9-2 with a 2.51 GAA and a .918 save percentage with Providence. He should return to Providence once he passes through waivers. None
May 13, 2024 DiPietro was sent down to AHL Providence on Monday. - DiPietro will switch places with Brandon Bussi, who was called up in a corresponding move. With Providence out of the Calder Cup playoffs, the move will effectively end DipIetro's 2023-24 campaign. He logged 30 minor-league contests in which he went 18-9-2 with a 2.51 GAA and .918 save percentage. None
May 4, 2024 DiPietro was recalled from AHL Providence on Saturday, per CapFriendly. - DiPietro is starting to bounce between the leagues frequently, though that may change if the Bruins don't get past the Maple Leafs in Saturday's Game 7. None
May 3, 2024 DiPietro was reassigned to AHL Providence on Friday, per Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal. - DiPietro was summoned Tuesday so the Bruins would have a third goaltender on their playoff roster. He might be recalled ahead of Game 7 on Saturday against Toronto to continue to serve that function. DiPietro hasn't played for Boston in the regular season or playoffs in 2023-24, but he did record a 2.51 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 30 regular-season outings with Providence. None
April 30, 2024 DiPietro was called up from AHL Providence on Tuesday, per CapFriendly. - DiPietro is likely up with the Bruins as an emergency third goalie for the playoffs. He signed a one-year, two-way contract extension with the Bruins in March, setting him up to once again fill an organizational depth role in 2024-25. None
March 20, 2024 DiPietro inked a one-year, two-way contract extension with the Bruins on Wednesday, Mark Divver of the New England Hockey Journal reports. - DiPietro hasn't gotten into an NHL game this season but has put up solid numbers with AHL Providence, registering a 17-8-0 record, .917 save percentage and 2.52 GAA in 26 appearances. Even if the team opted to part ways with Jeremy Swayman or Linus Ullmark this summer, the 24-year-old DiPietro could face an uphill battle in securing a spot on the Bruins' 23-man roster next season. None
Oct. 1, 2023 DiPietro was placed on waivers Sunday, Chris Johnston of TSN reports. - DiPietro went 19-9-0 with a 2.61 GAA and a .918 save percentage in 29 games with ECHL Maine last season. If the 24-year-old netminder clears, he will compete for a spot with AHL Providence. None

He also stopped 33 of 35 shots in a 4-2 win over Syracuse on March 15 during his lone AHL outing of 2022-23 for Providence. The 24-year-old netminder will probably be back in the minors for the start of the 2023-24 campaign. None
Oct. 27, 2022 DiPietro and Jonathan Myrenberg were traded by Vancouver to Boston in exchange for Jack Studnicka on Thursday. - Vancouver took DiPietro with the No. 64 pick in the 2017 draft. He had a 2.95 GAA and .901 save percentage in 34 AHL contests last season. He's also posted a 0-2-0 record, 5.25 GAA, and .771 save percentage in three career NHL games. Boston is expected to have him serve in the minors this season. He's probably not even third on the Bruins' organizational depth charts as netminder Keith Kinkaid, who has 167 games worth of NHL experience, might get called up over him if an injury leads to Boston needing another goaltender at some point in 2022-23. None
Feb. 2, 2022 DiPietro was reassigned to AHL Abbotsford on Wednesday, per CapFriendly. - DiPietro remained as a practice player with the Canucks after Thatcher Demko and Jaroslav Halak cleared the COVID-19 protocols. Going forward, DiPietro will likely compete with Spencer Martin for playing time with Abbotsford. None
Jan. 31, 2022 DiPietro was added to the taxi squad Monday. - DiPietro will serve as the emergency third option heading into the team's upcoming back-to-back versus Chicago and Nashville on Monday and Tuesday, respectively.

Jan. 23, 2022 DiPietro will defend the blue paint Sunday against visiting St. Louis. - DiPietro will make his NHL season debut Sunday against the Blues. The 22-year-old has posted a 4-7-2 record with a 3.19 GAA and an .896 save percentage with AHL Abbotsford in 2021-22. On the road this season, the Blues have gone 8-7-3 while averaging 31.1 shots on goal and 3.17 goals for. None
Jan. 21, 2022 DiPietro was recalled to the active roster from the taxi squad on an emergency basis Friday. - Thatcher Demko is in the league's COVID-19 protocols, so DiPietro is set to serve as Spencer Martin's backup Friday against Florida.

Jan. 20, 2022 DiPietro was elevated to the taxi squad Thursday. - DiPietro figures to serve as an emergency third option for the Canucks while Jaroslav Halak (COVID-19 protocols) is sidelined.
