Glad to see Schneider played well in relief. He did well last game too even though Stockton lost. He is starting to take away the job from Gillies and if he keeps it up Gillies will lose the starters gig once again just like he lost it to Rittich last year.
Funny how Stockton is mirroring the big club in goal. Out of 52 goalies that qualify--
Nick Schneider is 2nd in the AHL among qualified goalies in both goals against average with a 1.57 GAA and also 2nd in save pct at .948 Crazy that he is doing it with the team that has the most goals allowed in the entire AHL (77 goals against) so far.
Jon Gillies is 52nd in GAA at 4.77 and 51st in save pct at .848
Hope Schneider keeps up his great play and hope Gillies can turn it around.

What is it with this organization and it’s inability to develop goalies? Parsons was just as bad before getting hurt.
Parsons' last game he played he was 26 of 28 with the only shots beating him being basically unstoppable(a breakaway bardown snipe and a cross-ice power play goal with no defensive support). He was also hung out to dry in two other games. And he absolutely dominated in preseason looking like he should have been starting for the NHL Flames, and carried that over to his AHL preseason games.
If he were healthy right now I'm confident he'd look great.

Rittich is looking pretty good. The truth is most goalie prospects will not turn into NHL goalies. Gillies is trending to be a failure, but I still have high hopes for Parsons. I have written off Schneider a long time ago, but the way he is playing now, who knows how he will turn out.
I'm pretty disappointed in Gillies' lack of development but it didn't look like you could blame for those last four goals. He does have to start getting it together, though.

Ive been wondering the same. Could maybe give Parsons a conditioning stint in OKC. Schneider keeps this up though and there's no way they just send him back down.

I didn't like his compete level on the third goal. Likely nothing he could have done, but it seemed like he gave up as soon as he realized it was passed.

Maybe they send Gilles down, it may kill his confidence though (whatever is left of it).
I actually don't think Gillies was to blame for most of those goals against. Yes there was 1 or 2 he should have had but the rest were in no way his fault, good passing for tap ins at the back post, D asleep imo on a couple.
