A bit of a loaded question here for several reasons. Will he want to stay through this rebuild? Will he remain elite long enough to stay around as our goalie? Will he be too expensive by the end of his contract? I look at some reasons Cory may not be with the Devils as long as we think.
On of the great moves Lou made in his last few years as GM was the shocking trade for Cory Schneider. Not only has that worked out really well for us, but it was able to phase us out of one of the most dominant careers in NHL history in Martin Brodeur.
