Schmid will start Thursday's road game against Philadelphia, Steve Carp of The Sporting Tribune reports.
Scouting Report
The towering Swiss goalkeeper went from USHL goaltender of the year in 2020-21 to the NHL the following season, which is extremely rare. The 2018 fifth-round draft pick is still raw and needs to fill out his 6'5" frame. However, he takes up a lot of net simply because of his size. He also has the tools to play in the NHL, though he needs to sand down the rough spots.
Long Range Potential: Huge goaltender with upside.
