52 Evan Cormier G

The Devils reassigned Cormier to AHL Binghamton on Sunday.

Cormier served as Saturday's back up with MacKenzie Blackwood (upper body) missing the contest. The 22-year-old netminder was replaced on the roster by veteran Cory Schneider, who was recalled in a corresponding move. Cormier has registered an .881 save percentage and 3.61 GAA in nine AHL appearances.

Cormier was recalled from AHL Binghamton on Saturday.

With Mackenzie Blackwood (upper body) missing Saturday's contest in Washington, Cormier was recalled to back up Louis Domingue. The 22-year-old netminder has registered an .881 save percentage and 3.61 GAA in nine AHL appearances.

The Devils assigned Cormier to AHL Binghamton on Tuesday.

Cormier didn't get into any game action during his brief stay with the big club. The 22-year-old will take over as Binghamton's starter, where he's compiled a 1-5-1 record while posting a 3.77 GAA and .884 save percentage in seven appearances this season.

The Devils recalled Cormier from ECHL Adirondack on Saturday.

New Jersey placed Louis Domingue (lower body) on injured reserve in a corresponding move, so Cormier will take over as the team's backup netminder for the foreseeable future. The 22-year-old has posted a 3.77 GAA and .884 save percentage in seven AHL appearances this season.

Cormier signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Devils on Monday.

The deal begins with the current season and runs through the 2020-21 season. Cormier had been playing with the ECHL's Thunder prior to this, but after signing this deal, he will be reporting to AHL Binghamton.

Cormier was released from his tryout with the Panthers on Tuesday.

The Panthers likely reached out to Cormier to account for the possibility that 39-year-old starting backstop Roberto Luongo won't be able to handle 50-plus starts this season; after all, such a scenario would alter the goalie pecking order in Florida. However, primary backup James Reimer has appeared in 43 and 44 games, respectively, the past two seasons, and Michael Hutchinson is in the mix as well, actively drawing starts in the preseason. Cormier recorded a 3.18 GAA and .900 save percentage over 61 games for the Saginaw Spirit of the OHL last season, which was only good enough for a 24-24-0 record. Clearly, he's not ready for the big stage.
