“#Devils adding free agent Cory Schneider to goalie corps<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n Veteran goaltender Cory Schneider is closing in on a deal with the Islanders, GM Lou Lamoriello all but confirmed on Monday.<\/p>\n

Schneider is expected to sign a one-year, $700,000 deal, according to The Athletic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a good chance of that transpiring,\u201d Lamoriello said. \u201cAs you know I had Cory in New Jersey and I think that he\u2019s trying to resurrect his career and with our coaching staff, I\u2019ve had several conversations with Cory so that rumor, I think will come to fruition.\u201d<\/p>\n

The 34-year-old Schneider was bought out by the Devils last week, ending a rollercoaster seven-year run in Newark that began when Lamoriello acquired him during the 2013 NHL Draft to succeed Hall of Famer Martin Brodeur.<\/p>\n

Schneider at times was dominant for New Jersey, but never seemed to recover from a hip injury in 2018.<\/p>\n

In 2019-20, Schneider went 3-6 with a 3.53 goals against average and a .887 save percentage in 13 NHL game<\/a>s, and also spent time in the minor leagues.<\/p>\n

Schneider will likely be the third string netminder behind Semyon Varlamov and goaltending prodigy Ilya Sorokin.<\/p>\n

Sorokin signed a one-year, $2 million contract extension for the 2020-21 season and is expected to split time with Varlamov.<\/p>\n

The Islanders let Thomas Griess walk this offseason and he signed a two-year, $7.2 million deal with the Red Wings.<\/p>\n

Schneider will likely find himself with the team\u2019s minor-league affiliate, the Bridgeport Sound Tigers, who currently have only have goalie Jakub Skarek on the roster after the Islanders didn\u2019t extend a qualifying offer to RFA Linus Soderstrom and Chris Gibson signed as a UFA with the Tampa Bay Lightning.<\/p>\n

Adding Schneider is a low-risk deal for the Islanders, who could rely on the veteran should an injury at the NHL level arise.<\/p>\n

Schneider would have to be re-signed for the 2021-22 season to fulfill the expansion draft exposure requirement.<\/p>\n

Varlamov was the Islanders\u2019 No. 1 goalie during this year\u2019s playoff run, emerging as the clear starter after splitting the workload with Greiss for a majority of the regular season. Varlamov still has three years remaining on his four-year contract, carrying a cap hit of $5 million.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
