Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted December 29, 2009 Never thought I'd say that, but I would bring him back here. Not sure what his salary is, though. Only question is, would he fight Stuart for #23? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest E_S_A_D Report post Posted December 29, 2009 but I would bring him back here. Not sure what his salary is, though. No way. He's not the same Schneider as 2007. Also, his cap it is 2.7 mill, 1.5 mill salary. No way, no thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest mindfly Report post Posted December 29, 2009 Atleast he can shoot the puck from the point and hit the back of the net unlike lidstrom atm.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b-random 0 Report post Posted December 29, 2009 No way. He's not the same Schneider as 2007. Also, his cap it is 2.7 mill, 1.5 mill salary. No way, no thanks. we could use that cap space much more effectively. He still has a good shot from the point, but he's just not the type of player we need. We need a Lilja type player, a big D-man that can play on the PK and wear guys down. Schneider is more an offensive minded defensman and we have 3 of those (Lidstrom, Kronwall, Rafalski).

ltgator333 3 Report post Posted December 29, 2009 (edited) In fairness to cats, I give old, slow, injury-prone Schneider the do-not-want cat: He's not the same as ppl have said, and for that matter don't you remember how awful he was in his own zone? Rafalski was an upgrade at the time. That and the penalties, in his own zone. Edited December 29, 2009 by ltgator333 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 If he comes back up on re-entry, having him around for 750k for the rest of the year couldnt hurt in case of injury he's better then Lebda/Meech. Likely we wont have a look at him, but who knows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 I'd take him and waive Lebda. In a second. Schneider would never be my first choice, but at this point, I'd take Karlis Scrastins over Lebda. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Turkey 0 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 It would be nice to see him play out the season somewhere but I'm not optimistic. I will join in the Lebda bashing though. Every year that guy surprises me by still having a job. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why do you guys think the Canuckleheads are waivin the guy? Because they hoped he would quarterback the Power Play and provide some Offense, but he HAS NOT. His gas guage says EMPTY. He is 40 and done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because they hoped he would quarterback the Power Play and provide some Offense, but he HAS NOT. His gas guage says EMPTY. He is 40 and done. In all fairness, they were forcing a #2-3 Power Play specialist into a #1 role. Not good. Like Brad Staurt with every team he played with, forced into roles he couldn't handle. Which is why he does better with the wings. He's playing the role he should play. Same in Detroit, Mat would be paying a role he should be. Paired with Big Rig on the third pairing and manning the 2nd PP with Kronner. Not only does our 2nd PP unit instantly get better by having Mat there. You also get JWill off the D PP, and possibly down low as a forward. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pat 44 Report post Posted December 30, 2009 Hes old but still has talent left. Fits the redwings system perfectly and is still a scoring threat at the blueline. Also a right handed shooter which gives us 2 defenseman to use with lidstrom/kronwall/stuart Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
