Word around the city here is that Schneider (like many players on the roster) hated coach Clouston. Schneider was not happy when he basically lost his starting job after a hot start to the season. He finished poorly and even unexpectedly (again, rumour) left the team for about a week back in March.
He had some flashes of brilliance, especially to start the season. He seemed to lose his confidence behind a really bad defense. It also sounds like that locker room is not too positive. That said, he did win this year's community player award. With all the OA players on the Tigers he was never going to be back next season. Hopefully he finds the magic he had to start this past season.
