Schneider announced his retirement from professional hockey Tuesday, according to Phil Stacey of The Salem News.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider posted 171 wins, a 2.43 GAA, a .918 save percentage and 26 shutouts in 410 career contests for the Canucks, Devils and Islanders across 13 NHL seasons. The 37-year-old netminder spent most of the past two campaigns in the AHL with Bridgeport.

Schneider was assigned to AHL Bridgeport on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider didn't see any NHL action behind Ilya Sorokin during the absence of Semyon Varlamov (lower body). The Islanders activated Varlamov from injured reserve Monday in a corresponding move.

Schneider may not travel with the team on their upcoming road trip, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

Semyon Varlamov (lower body) has been on injured reserve and will make the trip with the team, which would suggest that he is getting close to a return to action. If the Islanders believe Varlamov is ready to at least back up Ilya Sorokin on Sunday in Seattle, they may elect to send Schneider back to the AHL.

Schneider was an emergency recall from AHL Bridgeport on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider has a 2.51 GAA and .921 save percentage in 15 AHL contests this season. He was summoned because Semyon Varlamov is dealing with a lower-body injury. The Islanders will play against the Rangers on Thursday and Florida on Friday, so if Varlamov isn't available for either of those contests, then perhaps Schneider will start in one of them.

Schneider was reassigned to AHL Bridgeport on Tuesday, per CapFriendly.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider was up with the big club as fill-in for Semyon Varlamov (undisclosed). The Islanders' next game is Thursday versus the Rangers, so Schneider could be recalled if Varlamov isn't able to suit up as the backup.

Schneider was promoted from AHL Bridgeport on Sunday, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 36-year-old will likely serve as Ilya Sorokin's backup Monday against Colorado while Semyon Varlamov deals with an undisclosed injury. Schneider is sporting a strong .921 save percentage and 2.51 GAA through 15 AHL games this season.

Schneider was waived by the Islanders on Wednesday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider is behind Ilya Sorokin and Semyon Varlamov on the Isles' depth chart, so he was always expected to start the season in the minors. The 36-year-old vet appeared in only one game with the big club in 2021-22.

Schneider signed a one-year contract with the Islanders on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

While the team didn't announce the contract specifics, it is likely that Schneider is on a two-way deal considering Ilya Sorokin and Semyon Varlamov are cemented as the goaltending tandem on Long Island. As such, Schneider figures to serve as an emergency depth option who will play primarily in the minors.

Schneider has been returned to the minors and will start for AHL Bridgeport on Tuesday, Kevin Kurz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider saw action in one game for the Isles this season in which he gave up three goals on 30 shots in a winning effort over the Devils. Schneider's demotion to the minors should be an indication that Ilya Sorokin (upper body) will at least be fit enough to back up versus the Stars on Tuesday.

Schneider made 27 saves in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Devils.

EDGE Analysis

Making his first appearance in the NHL in over two years, Schneider faced the team he last suited up for and got some revenge, although the 36-year-old nearly blew it as the Islanders handed him a 3-0 lead late in the second period. With Ilya Sorokin on the shelf due to an upper-body injury, Schneider will continue to back up Semyon Varlamov for now, but his workload will likely be limited.
