Schneider starts in goal on Saturday.

Schneider allowed three goals on 35 shots in the Devils loss to the Flyers on Thursday. In five starts this month, he has gone 2-3-0 with a 2.22 GAA and .930 SV%. Tonight he gets the nod in Dallas against a Stars team who have lost five of their last six. Schneider took the OTL in his first start vs. Dallas.

Schneider allowed one goal on 40 shots in the Devils win over the Hurricanes on Monday. He has won two of his last three with a 2.35 GAA and .930 SV%. After a rare night off on Tuesday, he will be back in goal tonight in Philly. Schneider is 1-0-0 vs. the Flyers and 8-8-0 with a 2.60 GAA and .918 SV% on the road.

Varlamov is day-to-day with a groin injury; will not play on Tuesday.

Varlamov is still battling a groin injury that cost him to miss six games from November 15th-December 3rd. There is no word on who will be called up, but if it is Calvin Pickard, he will get the start. Groin injuries with goalies are tricky, so Varly could be held out for awhile.

Schneider will be in goal on Monday.

Schneider allowed three goals on 28 shots in the Devils loss to the Capitals on Saturday. That makes five losses in Schneider’s last six starts, while posting a 2.51 GAA and .916 SV%. It hasn’t been a pretty season for Schneider, who will take on the Hurricanes, who are in the second game of a back-to-back. Schneider has gone 7-8-0 with a 2.71 GAA and .913 SV% on the road.

Schneider starts in goal for the Devils.

Schneider allowed three goals on 32 shots in the Devils 5-3 win over the Maple Leafs on Thursday. The win was his 10th of the year and snapped a personal four-game losing skid. His splits are strong (2.54 GAA / .916 SV%) but the Devils 22nd ranked offence limits his chance at racking up wins.

Varlamov leads the Avalanche onto the ice for warmups.

Varlamov allowed four goals on 25 shots in a 4-3 overtime loss to the Flames last night. It was Varlamov’s first start since November 15th, but he will go again tonight in the second game of the Avs’ back-to-back. It hasn’t been a great two months for Varly, who has missed time with injuries and posted a 4-5-5 record with a 3.01 GAA and .914 SV%.

Schneider starts for the Devils.

Schneider turned aside 22 of 23 shots, but walked away with the loss as Marc-Andre Fleury posted the shutout at the other end. That is four straight losses for Schneider who has posted a 2.26 GAA and .924 SV% over that span, so it is hard to blame him. He is a risky start tonight in Toronto vs. a Maple Leafs team who is second in the NHL in scoring.

As expected, Varlamov will start on Thursday.

Varlamov stopped 23 of 25 shots in a win over the Devils in his last start back on November 15th. The Avs went 3-3-0 in the six games that Varly missed, but he will be back between the pipes tonight in Calgary. He is 4-5-4 with a 2.95 GAA and .918 SV% this season, but the Avs are playing better of late, making him an interesting buy-low candidate.

Schneider will start on Tuesday in Pittsburgh.

Schneider allowed two goals on 27 shots in the Devils loss to the Islanders on Saturday. He has lost his last three starts with a 2.65 GAA and .916 SV%. Tonight, Schneider draws a brutal matchup in Pittsburgh—in his first start vs. the Penguins he was pulled after allowing five goals on 23 shots.
