Schneider to make 1st start of season for Devils
by Josh Gold-Smith from on (#421Y7)
Cory Schneider's bid to reclaim the New Jersey Devils' crease begins Thursday night.
The goaltender will start against the Detroit Red Wings, New Jersey head coach John Hynes confirmed Thursday morning, according to NJ.com's Chris Ryan.
Schneider missed the first eight games of the season while recovering from hip surgery that he underwent in May.
Keith Kinkaid performed admirably in Schneider's absence, but then allowed seven goals in Tuesday's 8-3 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Schneider made five saves on six shots in relief of Kinkaid in that contest, the 32-year-old's first appearance of the campaign.
