Schneider will be in the cage for Tuesday's game against the Sabres, Rich Chere of the Newark Star-Ledger reports.Schneider has been dealt a tough hand of late, taking three straight losses while posting save percentages of .916, .941, and .921 in those defeats. It's clear the offense hasn't done much to lift him lately, but if ever there were an opportunity for the Devils to break through, Tuesday's match against the woeful Sabres is it. In fact, Schneider might even be the most attractive fantasy goalie option going among the Tuesday slate.

Schneider was handed his third straight loss Saturday, as he let in three goals on 38 shots in a 3-1 defeat to the Predators.Almost none of the blame for the losing streak can be placed on Schneider's shoulders, as he's turned in save marks about .910 in all three outings. Instead, as was quite common last season, it's the Devils' cratering offense that bears most of the responsibility for his demise. Patrik Elias, Jaromir Jagr, Scott Gomez, and Mike Cammalleri don't figure to rediscover the Fountain of Youth anytime soon while occupying primary roles in the team's attack, so expect Schneider's win totals to remain depressed the rest of the way.

Schneider will start in goal Saturday against the Predators, Tom Gulitti of the Bergen Record reports.Rather than turn to Keith Kinkaid for the second half of a back-to-back set, interim coach Lou Lamoriello will stick with Schneider, who took a tough-luck loss to the Blackhawks on Friday (32 saves on 34 shots). It will mark Schneider's first time starting on back-to-back days since Nov. 28 and 29.

Schneider gave up two goals on 34 shots in Friday's loss to the Blackhawks.It's ridiculous how good this guy is playing right now. Schneider has given up two goals or less in eight straight appearances, advancing his save percentage to .924 and his GAA to 2.29. While his 19-21-5 record isn't the greatest, Schneider is single-handedly carry the Devils right now and has played in a league-high 49 games. The workhorse is unbeatable right now and is worthy of being in your lineup every game.

Schneider will get the nod in goal for Friday's tilt with the Blackhawks, Tom Gulitti of The Record reports.After sitting in the middle of the pack among goalies in rate stats for much of the season, Schneider has been exceptional since about late December. With two goals or fewer allowed in seven straight outings, Schneider has climbed up to eighth in the NHL in save percentage (.923) and 12th in GAA (2.29). Only a handful of teams can match the potency of the Blackhawks' attack, but even fewer goalies are playing on as high of a level as Schneider is right now. Fantasy owners should feel comfortable with keeping the goalie active Friday.

Schneider turned away 22 of 24 shots in Monday's 2-1 loss to the Oilers.It wasn't a particularly bad performance for Schneider, but he didn't get much help from his teammates as they mustered just 14 shots on the other end. It's just his second regulation loss in his last seven starts, and while his overall record on the season isn't great (19-20-5), the 28-year-old has solid rate stats and has been on fire of late.

Schneider stopped 33 of 34 shots in Friday's win over the Leafs.
He's on another level right now. It's not even fair. Schneider is 7-1-1 in his last nine games, allowing more than two goals in just one of those outings. He's started a whopping 45 games this season and boasts an impressive .924 save percentage, making him a must-start every game. With just two regulation losses in his last 11 appearances, Schneider is one of the most reliable goaltenders around.

Schneider will receive the start in goal Friday against the Maple Leafs, Rich Chere of the Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Schneider has won four of his last five outings while holding the opposition to two or fewer goals. He can be played with confidence against a struggling Toronto squad that has lost 10 straight contests.
