History
2005-06: Devin Didiomete’s second season with the Sudbury Wolves of the OHL saw him tally 36 points in 60 games. His intense play lead him to 202 PIMs for the Wolves. The Flames would select Didiomete 187th overall in the 2006 NHL Draft.
2006-07: The Stratford, Ontario, native had yet another increase in his point production, this time recording 40 points (21G, 19A) in 62 games. The fiery Didiomete would add another 205 PIMs to his OHL career totals.
2007-08: In an off-season transaction, the Sudbury Wolves would send Didiomete to the Sarnia Sting for his final junior league season. Playing alongside the consensus No.1 overall pick for this summers NHL draft, Steven Stamkos, Didiomete has amassed 56 points (23G, 33A) in 56 games. Didiomete has also managed to add another 216 PIMs to his junior league totals. The Sarnia Sting will face off against the Windsor Spitfires in the first round of the OHL playoffs.
Talent Analysis
The 5’11” 200 lb left winger is a gritty, tenacious prospect. He plays with an edge to intimidate his opponents. As he has matured, his point production has risen along with him. He plays with so much intensity, that at times his emotions force him to take bad penalties. He is the kind of player you hate to play against, but would love to have on your roster.
Future
We will have to see if his high-energy game will translate to the AHL. Didiomete’s overall skill set should someday lead him to a part-time/full-time spot on Calgary’s fourth line.
