Cory Schneider is ready for his NHL return.
The Devils recalled the goalie from Binghamton in the AHL, where he played three games last week on a conditioning stint.
Goalie Eddie Lack, who has backed up Keith Kinkaid in all eight NHL games this season, was sent to Binghamton on his own conditioning assignment. The means Schneider will travel with the team to Tampa and dress in some capacity for Tuesday's game against the Lightning.
Schneider may not start Tuesday's game, but the Devils will need both Schneider and Kinkaid over the course of the team's upcoming seven-game road trip.
