Devils place Cory Schneider on waivers, recall Domingue from AHL - Sportsnet.ca

Worth grabbing off waivers, or no?

He's probably worse than both Howard and Bernier, so picking him would help the TANK.

But adding 6M contract for another 3 years is not probably smart.

and do what with him exactly? its not like our other goalies will be easy to move with their stellar play.

 

[GBFP]

Nope.

"It seems unlikely a team would do so since it would inherit his $6 million annual salary, which runs through the 2021-22 season. Also, Schneider had battled a hip injury in recent years."

I repeat - Nope.

 

[Go Wings]

Good God no

 

[Gniwder]

He's got the worst SV% and GAA this NHL season for goalies that have played more than 1 game.

While we're on the subject, note that Howie is 60th in GAA and 56th in SV%, and Cory is worse.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Holland would so no

I think Schneider will rebound, but I wouldn't want to commit to his contract.

Howard's in the final year of his contact... Abby and Nielsen have term left. I wonder if a garbage for garbage trade is a possibility? There is not much cap relief in putting players in the minors anymore so Schneider going to the farm doesn't do much for New Jersey besides sending a message. Send one of the guys with term for a straight up swap... Or move Howard for Schneider and see if we can pick up another reclamation project for taking the longer term? Not saying it will happen but it's the kind of creativity Yzerman may be looking for if he's hoping to move on from some of our stagnant pieces.

I'd wait to see how Cory does in the AHL before committing to any trade.

Red Wings need to sign Mantha, Bert, AA, and Fabbri this offseason, they're not going to take on extra salary. The only trade that would make sense would be a swap for Nielsen if Cory plays well in the AHL.

Imagine having 13 million in cap tied up in Howard, Bernier, and Schneider, and also paying Schneider another 12 million over the next 2 seasons to be a terrible goalie.

 

[Ghost of Ethan Hunt]

Heck no, 2.25GAA & .925SV% was in '14-'15...5 yrs ago! Since then he hasn't posted over .908 or under 2.82 & each metric has gotten progressively worse, so a linear, large sample size. This year the bottom fell out.

I have more faith in an older (2yrs) Howie rebounding to maybe net a 3rd/4th @TDL.

I'd also keep Frans over Cory.

 

[turkleton85]

i'm sure he wont, he has obviously not been an nhl goalie for quite some time now

 

[bedtime20]

When Howard and #45 when they play at their best they are both better than cory so pass on cory

 

[Killerjas]

Hell no

 

[kliq]

Only way I would take Schenider is if NJ threw in a 1st round pick. Schenider & 1st for Bernier or Howard.....I'd have to do the math, but this I would consider.

 

[Oddbob]

Is this seriously a question?????????? $6 mil cap hit, with atrocious numbers.

 

[Oddbob]

The only way I would consider this, is if they took both Nielsen and Abdelkader back.

 

[Zetterberg4Captain]

If it were Howard and Abby/Nielsen for Schneider than yes I would

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Showing my age because when I saw Schneider my first thought was Mathieu?

 

[Retire91]

Need high reward low risk moves. That contract is too risky that is a lot of cap space for someone struggling. It's like a high risk okay reward. Pass for me.
