Why Cory Schneider and Taylor Hall missed Devils practice on Friday

Devils goalie Cory Schneider missed practice on Friday due to illness, while forward Taylor Hall sat out for a maintenance day.

Schneider missed Tuesday's 4-1 win over the New York Islanders at the Barclays Center due to illness, but he was well enough to back up Keith Kinkaid in Thursday's 4-3 overtime win over the Washington Capitals at the Prudential Center in Newark.

Given Schneider's absence, it appears Kinkaid will make his third straight start when the Devils visit the Flyers at 1 p.
