We’ve seen crazier things happen Toronto has zero cap flexability to take on Schneider without dumping a significant piece off their roster. No chance that happens for a goalie who has proven for the better part of two and a half seasons he is struggling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck the Duck Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Toronto would sign me to play in net for them before picking up Cory off waivers at his full $6 million+ cap hit. They basically can't afford the players they have. They definitely can't afford adding Cory to that payroll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Great guy but the team gave him every shot possible and he couldn't get back to where he was. This had to be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgeControl Posted November 18, 2019 Share Posted November 18, 2019 Good move by shero, takes some pressure off Hynes not playing cory in back to backs.. and saves cory some embarrassment..having to look happy on the bench 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can sweeten the deal by adding Tennyson. The trade is 1.25 for 1.75. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 We just need a team that has extra cap soace and doesn’t mind keeping around a guy who can’t really play now. You know, like us until this morning. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t it possible to send a guy down on a conditioning stint without having to waive him? As much as Hynes says it isn’t the end, kind of feels like waiving him was at least an attempt at letting someone else pick him up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel as though if they wanted him to get conditioning, a simple IR stint followed by a conditioning stint would have made more sense.

Unfortunately any GM with a brain will think "So the Devils dealt for another goalie because based on what they what they saw both in games and in practices, they strongly suspected that there was no way that Schneider was going to snap out of this (latest) funk. And now they're moving forward with it. Thanks, but no thanks!" It would probably take a Schneider + something (Wood?) for Bobby Ryan-type deal to get another GM to take him. Nope, I don't wanna do that either. Cory's salary is the only thing forcing a "Ya never know" narrative at this point, as far as having any future goes with the Devils (I have a feeling a buyout is coming after this season...Devils will regain $4 million in cap space in 2020-21 and 2021-22, but will be stuck with $2 million in dead money over each of the next 4 seasons. Sucks for next season because that's $3,916,667 in dead space (includes Cammalleri's buyout and Kovy's recapture), and the Devils aren't quite as flush with cap space as they once were. As irrelevant as he seems at the moment, all it's going to take is an injury to either Blackwood or Domingue for Cory to suddenly a part of the big club again this year. Very scary thought.

mfitz804 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 What’s the deal with Domingue anyway? Granted he was on a powerhouse team, but how does a guy coming off a 21-5 season find himself without an NHL job? Save percentage was .908, I get that, but he was serviceable if nothing else. I mean, Keith Kinkaid has an NHL job... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few have said he is worse than KK. We will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On our team last year, he might’ve been 5-21 with the same stats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming this move is to help him find his game while not in the NHL, I think they went the waivers route for 2 reasons. 1) see if anyone takes him, which is a long shot, and 2) because they feel it'll take more than 2 weeks to get his game back. Honestly I'm thinking we don't see him until around New Years if we do at all. If he's rocking a .890 in the AHL after a month, I really think that's it. And I say that as someone who has always been a big Cory defender. He just might be done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can he really be worse than Cory's GAA of 4.59 and a SV% of .852? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
