I'm more impressed you remembered Krahn! I was actually at the draft so I remembered DiPietro well. And 2000 was shortly after we moved back to Calgary so that one sticks out for me

Continuing on with DiPietro, a couple follow up questions.

What year was his final NHL appearance, and what year will he collect his final pay cheque from the Islanders?

How can anyone who watched it forget about Krahn? It was a terrible homer pick!

This player was a small part of a flames record, playing only 1 game for Calgary where he had to rent a suit (tuxedo??) before showing up to the arena.
