Michael DiPietro was born on June 9, 1999, in Windsor, Ontario. The goalie played 21 games for the Sun County Panthers 16U AAA team during the 2014-15 season and posted a 2.12 goals against average and a .916 save percentage.

In his first season with the Spitfires, the netminder registered a 2.45 GAA and a .912 save percentage in 29 games. An increased workload saw DiPietro log 51 games during the 2016-17 season, and his numbers improved.

The Vancouver Canucks Select Michael DiPietro in the Third Round of the 2017 NHL Draft

DiPietro played two more seasons in the OHL before making his NHL debut as an emergency call-up with the Canucks. DiPietro allowed seven goals in his inauspicious debut. However, an impressive showing at the World Junior Championships was the highlight of his 2018-19 season.
