The announcement was made by Devils’ CEO/President/ General Manager Lou Lamoriello. As per club
policy, no terms were disclosed. </p> <p>“Corey Schwab is a veteran who has spent a number of years as a backup goaltender,” said Lamoriello. “He was with our organization for five seasons and is familiar with our hockey team.”</p> <p>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.</p> <p>Schwab began his NHL career with the Devils by posting a 2.18 GAA in ten games during the 1995-96 season. He was with the organization for five years from 1991-96, including time spent with Utica (AHL), Cincinnati (IHL), and Albany (AHL). Schwab was a member of Albany’s 1995 Calder Cup Championship team, was named to the league’s Second All-Star Team, and was
co-winner of the Holmes Memorial (fewest goals against) and Butterfield Trophies (playoff MVP) that season. He was traded to Tampa Bay on June 22, 1996 and played for the Lightning for three seasons. Schwab was selected by Atlanta in the 1999 Expansion Draft and was traded to Vancouver on October 29, 1999. He signed with Toronto as a free agent on October 1, 2001.<br> </p></td> </tr> </table>
