Stray DiPietro Note

This one didn't make The Skinny; I'll get it in if he extends the streak.

DiPietro now has won his last four starts. His last loss was on December 11th to
Atlanta. Since then he has gone 4-0, allowing only seven goals on 127 shots
(1.99 GAA, 94.5%). He has also missed two stretches of games due to injury in
that period.



It's the sixth time in his career that he has won at least four straight
decisions, but the first time since February 2008, when he won six straight.

Forever1940 is the nom de plume of Eric Hornick, statistician on Islander home
telecasts since 1982. Visit my blog: forever1940.blogspot.com and follow me on
