Schneider will protect the home goal in Tuesday's preseason game versus the Flyers, Andrew Gross of Newsday reports.

EDGE Analysis

This will be Schneider's second start of the preseason, with the first coming last Tuesday against the Flyers as well. The 35-year-old is on a two-way deal with the Islanders, but with Semyon Varlamov (undisclosed) uncertain for Opening Night, Schneider could be the next man up to share goaltending duties with Ilya Sorokin.
