After a stunning run to the playoffs....the New York Islanders have rewarded Wade Dubielewicz. The Isles signed "Dubie" to a 1 year one way contract to be the backup goaltender to starter Rick DiPietro.
Dubielewicz was signed as an undrafted free agent by the Islanders after a very successful career at the University of Denver. He was a Hobey Baker finalist during his junior season in 2001-02. Over the course of his Sound Tiger career, Dubie is an impressive 58-52-8 with a 2.48 GAA and a .919 save percentage and 13 shutouts.
Excellent move by the Islanders, rewarding a player who has waited for his chance for some time and who came up huge for them in a desperate time of need. Dubielewicz has been told his whole life that he would never make it....now he's an NHL goaltender....
