DiPietro, Spitfires Shut Out Saginaw 4-0

Michael DiPietro stopped all 20 shots he faced in goal for the Windsor Spitfires.

The Spits pulled off a 4-0 win over the Spirit Saturday night in Saginaw, leapfrogging the Spirit for seventh place in the OHL Western Conference with 63 points.

DiPietro notched his seventh shutout of the season and the 15th of his career, both Spitfires records. He also sits one behind Tom McCollum for the all-time OHL record.

Tyler Angle put Windsor on the board first with his tenth goal of the season at 13:39 of the opening frame.

Cody Morgan put up his tenth score of the year in the second period, doubling the score to 2-0 Spits after 40 minutes of play.

Windsor added two more goals in the third frame. Luke Boka picked up his 14th of the season just 47 seconds in, and Luke Kutkevicius provided the Spitfires with insurance later in the period.

Evan Cormier also stopped 20 shots for Saginaw, out of 24 attempts.

Windsor now travels to Sault Ste. Marie to face the conference champion Greyhounds.
