The 29-year old needs four wins to pass Daniel Berthiaume for second on the all-time list. This season, Magliarditi leads the ECHL with 18 wins and is third in the league with a 2.19 goals against average. In his ninth professional season, the Niagara Falls, NY native is the Las Vegas Wranglers all-time leader in wins, saves, and minutes played. On October 23, 2003 Magliarditi recorded the first ever win for the Las Vegas Wranglers. Magliarditi recorded the first Las Vegas shutout over the Fresno Falcons on February 29th, 2004.
