Schneider will remain with the Islanders for the immediate future, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider is expected to start a game for the Islanders. In a perfect world, they would like to demote him to the practice squad, but to do so, they would have to place him on waivers, and with goalies in short supply right now throughout the league, the team is afraid of another team claiming him and thus losing his rights.

Schneider is expected to be the third-string goaltender for the Islanders this season, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

This does not come as a surprise as Semyon Varlamov and Ilya Sorokin are slated to be the starters for the Islanders this season. Schneider will need an injury to one of those two in order to get back in the NHL this season as he is purely insurance for the club.

Schneider and the Islanders agreed to a one-year, $700,000 contract on Monday, Pierre LeBrun of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider got off to an awful start last season, falling to 0-4-1 with a 4.59 GAA before he was waived and sent to AHL Binghamton. He rebounded by posting a 2.48 GAA and .922 save percentage in seven appearances later in the season, but the Devils still decided to buy out his contract prior to the beginning of free agency. Now, the 34-year-old Massachusetts native will get a chance to revive his career as Semyon Varlamov's backup with the Islanders.

Schneider was designated for waivers by the Devils on Thursday in order to buy out his contract.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider has two years remaining on his deal at $6 million AAV, which means the organization will save $4 million over the next two seasons before being on the hook for $2 million for another two years following. In addition to Mackenzie Blackwood, New Jersey has just youngsters Senn Gilles and Evan Cormier under contract next season which means the club will likely be in the market for a veteran backup.

Schneider will defend the blue paint during Thursday's home clash with Carolina, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider has been on a roll recently, securing back-to-back wins over the Ducks and Blues while posting a highly impressive 1.00 GAA and .970 save percentage. The 33-year-old American will attempt to pick up his fourth victory of the season in a tough home matchup with a surging Hurricanes club that's won three straight games.

Schneider made 31 saves on 33 shots in Friday's 4-2 win over the Blues.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider turned in another strong outing against a red-hot Blues team -- it's his third win in his last four starts. The 33-year-old goalie improved to 3-6-2 with a 3.53 GAA and an .887 save percentage in 13 games, but he's allowed just six goals in his last four outings.

Schneider will guard the home goal during Friday's matchup with the Blues, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider has played well recently, registering a 2-0-1 record while posting an impressive 1.33 GAA and .957 save percentage in his last three starts. The 33-year-old backstop will attempt to pick up his third win of the campaign in a brutal home matchup with a sizzling-hot St. Louis club that's won eight straight games.

Schneider posted a 34-save shutout in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider hadn't protected a goose egg since Feb. 21 of last season, when he blanked the Senators. He's allowed just four goals over three starts since he was recalled following the Devils' trade of Louis Domingue to Vancouver. Schneider has a 2-6-2 record with a 3.68 GAA and an .882 save percentage through 12 games this year. With solid results in tow, Schneider may begin to eat away at MacKenzie Blackwood's playing time down the stretch.

Schneider will guard the crease for Sunday's contest in Anaheim.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider will start for the third time in the last four games during the Devils' current road trip. Over his last two outings, the Massachusetts native went 1-0-1 while stopping 54-of-58 shots. A matchup against the NHL's third-lowest scoring offense should give Schneider a good opportunity to keep the momentum rolling.

Schneider gave up three goals on 30 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Schneider was spotted a 2-0 lead after one period, but he let it slip in the second, and Logan Couture completed the Sharks' comeback in overtime. The tough loss dropped Schneider to 1-6-2 with a 4.08 GAA and an .868 save percentage through 11 appearances this year. The Devils continue their road trip with a weekend back-to-back in Los Angeles on Saturday and Anaheim on Sunday. Schneider will likely split those starts with MacKenzie Blackwood.
