 Cory Schwab to NJ

Devils blankBalej writes "The New Jersey Devils today signed free agent goaltender Corey Schwab to a contract. The announcement was made by Devils’ CEO/President/ General Manager Lou Lamoriello. As per club policy, no terms were disclosed.

Schwab, 31, spent the 2001-02 season with Toronto where he posted 12 wins, ten losses and five ties, with one shutout and a 2.73 goals-against average in 30 games played. The 6’0”, 180 lb. native of North Battleford, Sask. is looking to become the seventh player to be re-acquired and play for the Devils. He has career totals of 35 wins, 60 losses, and 11 ties with four shutouts and a 3.08 GAA in 133 games with New Jersey, Tampa Bay, Vancouver, and Toronto. Schwab was selected by the Devils in the tenth round of the 1990 Entry Draft.

...........

With some G talent gone to ducks Schwab is the solution ? Give a chance to Ahonen !

I think the Devils goaltending youth is weak. I mean, Ahonen is too touted and this guy just has to make it in the NHL. I know scandanavian goalies take a long time, but come on....this guy was drafted in 1999. Damphousse is not much and Clemensen is not much either. I hope either Clemensen or Ahonen beat Schwab in training camp for the back up position, i want to see more young goalies enter the NHL.

My god,Quinn can't even get a back up goalie signed? How bad of a GM is the man?
So far this off season he failed to sign the teams biggest player,a back up goalie and every other FA that he talked to. No wonder the Leafs are goin down.

Here's my question to you Leafs fans. Would you rather see Tellqvist or Schwab?

nobody wanted this guy a year ago... it'd be ridiculous if the leafs signed him based on limited success last year

telqvist or centomo backing up belfour is what the leafs have to do... slowly bring up a young goalie and start looking a few years down the road for a change

I predicted this one a few months ago, on a response to someone's article.. Pretty low considering how well Scwabb played for the team. But as a reply to Titans comment, I agree the leafs have totally sucked this summer. I realize I am indeed angry, but considering that the leafs raised ticket prices again and have tons of money they could spend, I agree with anyone that the Toronto Maple Leafs have been the worst team this offseason.

On another note the team had a press conference today, in which they tried to cover up their mistakes by saying the salaries this summer are ridiculous(which they are). For example Quinn was saying stuff like 45 mil over 5 years is a little bit much. Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't the leafs offering Holik like 40 mil over 5..? not that much of a difference... And last he said American players don't want to play here. That's a lie Amonte clearly was willing to play here, but leafs wouldn't give him like another damn .5 million!! DAMNIT! I hate you leaf management, but I love your team.

Devils are always strong in the goalie area, we have always drafted and produced quality goaltending (Mclean, Dunham, Sean Burke, etc).

One thing you have to learn about the Devils is we don't rush our goalies.

The position is too important to rush, hence Ahonen, who will be a star in the NHL will have to develop.

Right now he needs to learn the larger ice-surface in North America and play 70% of his games to improve his fundementals.

He can't do that riding the pines at CAA, behind Brodeur.

Another smart move by Lou.

it's only schwab! they are other back up goaltenders out there better than him. why are you guys going crazy over this? it's not like we lost a really really elite goaltender in schwab! we'll probably give our young guys a chance to win the backup position or trade for a goalie or better yet sign one of the fa backup goalies out there, no need to stress out.

You know, Mike Vernon is a UFA and Calgary already has Maclennan. He's a cheap decent backup.
