The Bruins solidified their goaltending depth by signed DiPietro to a two-year contract with a $812.5K AAV. The 26-year-old netminder has impressed at every level but has not been able to establish himself in the NHL yet. Dipeitro had a solid 2.05 GAA and .927 SV% in 40 games with the Providence Bruins (AHL) this season.

Jeremy Swayman was battling an undisclosed ailment that prevented his from suiting up on Thursday, resulting in Boston recalling DiPietro from Providence (AHL) to serve as Joonas Korpisalo's backup in their 2-0 win over the Ottawa Senators. The 25-year-old DiPietro has been outstanding in the AHL this season, posting a 1.95 GAA and .930 SV% in 22 games (14-5-3) with Providence.

DiPietro may be in line to start on Sunday with Jaroslav Halak in COVID-19 protocol and Thatcher Demko playing yesterday. DiPietro has gone 4-7-2 with a 3.19 GAA and .896 SV% in 13 AHL games this season.

Thatcher Demko is out indefinitely with a concussion, so DiPietro comes up from Utica to serve as Jacob Markstrom's backup on Thursday. With a back-to-back coming up this weekend, Demko could make his season debut in San Jose (Sat) or Vegas (Sun). He is 8-4-1 with a 2.56 GAA and .910 SV% with Utica this season.

DiPietro came up while Jacob Markstrom was away from the team. Markstrom returned over the weekend, so DiPietro heads back to the AHL, where he is 7-4-1 with a 2.44 GAA and .913 SV% in 13 games this season.
