You really have to feel bad for DiPietro. His career has been ruined by unfortunate injuries. He's a confident and somewhat cocky guy in nature and it must have been hard for him to not be able to do what he used to do and with that contract hanging on him.
Some posters here are thinking there's a possibility that DiPietro can come back. I don't think he can. DiPietro's body is shot and always one bump from another serious injury. He simply isn't an NHL goaltender anymore and make no mistake, the Islanders have given DiPietro every chance to be productive.
