But Schneider is. Have you seen him play? He's been awful. Worse than Smith. 4.72 /.862

Just because he might bounce back doesn't mean it's a risk worth taking. Right now he needs to bounce back just to catch Smith, and thats still far away from decent goaltending. The length of that contract is also just crazy, literally looking like one of the worse contracts in the league.

Shooting yourself in the foot is still crazy even if you have already stepped on a nail.
I agree. I thought Schneider was a good option with the caveat that the team start Rittich and keep a close eye on Schneider in the meantime to see how he bounces back from surgery and whether he’s going to be able to return to his former form, which was a top 5 goalie in the league. So far it is looking like stay far far away to be honest.
