Well, the tank took the weekend off for the sake of New Jersey Devils goalie Cory Schneider. He helped the team lead a three-goal comeback to the Minnesota Wild on Friday night, then stopped 34 of 35 shots against the Buffalo Sabres on Sunday.
Outside of last year’s playoffs, where somehow Schneider went against the best offense in the league in the Tampa Bay Lightning and posted .900+ save percentages in each game, he hasn’t posted back to back games stopping more than 90 percent of his shots against since 2017. Yet, more than one year later, he’s back to doing that.
