Why would the Devils even consider making this trade?

Why would Devils do this

Why would Devils do this

Cause Schneider hasn’t been good for like 2 years now...

Why would Devils do this

Because they like Keith Kinkaid more and paying your backup 6M a year in the cap era isn’t smart.

Don't care how bad hes been Id rather have a backup goalie that has a sub 3.0 GAA the last two years making 6mil over the next 4 years, instead of a 20 point 3rd liner thats only getting slower in a league that keeps getting more and more about speed thats also making 6mil over 4 and Markstrom hasn't been consistently good enough to make it up the difference

 

[puckpilot]

Sooo the Devils take in just under 10 million dollars to get rid of 6... make sense to me. Eriksson's contract is an anchor.

 

[ScottyK]

Horrible

Honestly not that bad. Eriksson is still a good top 9 forward and is underrated defensively. Not sure why New Jersey would rather pay 6 million to someone who sits on the bench when they can pay the same for a productive top 9 player. I’d do it from a Canucks side hoping that Schneider can return to Vancouver form.

its terrible for NJ. They have no youth coming up for the goaltending spot, therefore having two guys instead of one who can play in the NHL beats having a similar contract in a forward, where hed be playing over youth and thats just not a recipe for success.

Schneider isnt in anyones way, Eriksson most certainly would be

 

[Just Linda]

Does Schneider even want to go back after the fiasco from years ago? If so, it would be nice to see him in Canucks jersey again but either way, neither trade solves anything for either team

 

[RememberTheName]

Yuck.

 

[SpeakingOfTheDevils]

Pass.

You guys are stuck with that Eriksson deal. No ****ing way.

 

[keslerburrows]

It's hilarious how Canucks fans pretend Erickson has any value. There are maybe 3 players with more negative value in the entire NHL.

Eriksson signed for three more years after this at age 33 is an outrageously bad contract.

 

[Rowlet]

Don't care to bring back Schneider and Canucks will just expose Eriksson to Seattle, they don't need money right now and he will get picked.

Obviously, but so does Schneider. Less years but bad contract still. I’d retain a bit on Erikssson because his contract is longer.

There are multiple teams that would take Schneider for free. He looked great in the playoffs last year.

Since joining the Devils, his goals against average has steadily declined: 1.97, 2.26, 2.35, 2.82, 2.93, 2.67 in the AHL, and 3.24 this season. His save percentage has been below .900 this season even in the AHL, and has declined hard since joining the devils, .907 and .908 the years before. He’s not even close to being worth 6 million a year.

 

[Canadian Canuck]

Would Devils fans be more interested in a Markstrom+Sutter/Gudbranson for Schneider+Depth dman trade?
