Thanks Todd, would be happy with any of them. Question - Do the Devils need Schneider's contract to reach the floor next year? That's assuming no high priced FA signs here...

Todd,

How deep is your depth chart for goalies before you just say "screw it, just keep Cory"?

there are quite a few options I'd rather have. they aren't pressed for cap right now so could technically bury Schneider in the AHL/use as the No. 3 and buy him out next year

McIntyre and Senn was a pretty good AHL goaltender tandem. I'd like to try and repeat that for next year because they are 27 and 24 years old and have very little else in the pipeline. It gets a little complicated with Schneider and another veteran goalie in the mix.

That said, I don't care who they add if they can figure out a way to make it work. It seems like it won't be a very attractive situation for a new goalie unless it's understood Cory is going to be in the AHL.

I think out of the 2, Greiss has always been a pain to play against. Anyone, just please I don't want another Cory experiment. If MB2 gets injured the last goalie I want to see on the bench would be Cory.

Agree. Plus his play seems to negatively affect the psyche of the team. They always seem to be waiting for Mr Softee

Great article Todd...sure enough if it is one thing we need next year is a capable backup goalie who for all purposes could wind up a starter due to an injury to MB..,I would not mind Talbot of the 3!
