Just an observation---Rick DiPietro is not a Canadian anything. He never even played on a Canadian team, juniors or otherwise. What's up with referring to him as a "Canadian rookie ice hockey goalie"???
That honor belongs to Michel Plasse —The preceding unsigned comment was added by DeadEyeArrow ( talk • contribs) 04:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC).
True, it would be more accurate to call DiPietro the first goalie to be selected number one in the NHL Entry Draft. Prior to 1979, it was called the NHL Amateur Draft (as only players who had never played pro hockey were allowed to be drafted). The draft age was also lowered by one year in '79... -- rsgdodge 20:18, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
Can someone please find a source that says the NHL discouraged the 15-year deal and that he signed a 1-year deal? He is not listed on NHL.com's Free Agent list nor on their signed list, as he would've been a free agent this year had he signed a 1-year deal. If no source can be found, the article should be changed. -- David7581 04:07, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
This article is not an editorial. The words many beleive sould be used with overatedness and his ridiculous contract. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.231.78.63 ( talk) 11:31, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
In the first sentence, it says DiPietro was born in Massachusetts while the sidebar says he was born in Maine. Just bringing it to everyone's attention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.111.88.207 ( talk) 00:34, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
Why is the photo of Rick DiPietro one of him hunched over like that? You cant see his face, his number, anything. There are thousands of better pictures of Rick- I just don't know how to change it. TheMetalChick ( talk) 05:41, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
If you Google his name, the description for this article says " Template:Infobox Ice Hockey Player that sucks dick" which doesn't appear in the edit box and I can't figure out how to delete it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kopitarian ( talk • contribs) 04:00, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
I removed the section written about his retirement, as no credible sources were provided to back up the "quietly retired from the NHL" statement. The last news about this is mere speculation that dates no more recently than late November of 2013, after his release from the Charlotte Checkers. Crimson667 ( talk) 15:05, 22 January 2014 (UTC)
