Schneider (knee) has been placed on injured reserve retroactive to March 4 and assigned to AHL Albany for conditioning. He will practice with Albany Monday and return to the Devils on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider's return seems to be drawing near, and assuming all goes well with the practices Monday and Tuesday, there could be a shot of him playing as early as Tuesday evening against the Bruins. Further updates on the star netminder's status should surface as that date approaches.
