Regular Season Statistics with the Franchise

With both Marty Brodeur and Mike Dunham ahead of him, Schwab saw plenty of work with the Utica Devils in the early 90s
and the Albany River Rats in the mid-90s.
It was clear by the time he saw an NHL game that there was just no room for him, so he was traded to the Lightning so he
could see more NHL work, even if it meant playing on a terrible team.
That 95-96 season had an eventful moment for him, though. He got into a fight with Isles' goalie Tommy Soderstrom in one
game. It got him ejected.
He would continue to bounce around, both in the NHL and in the minors, until he returned to the Devils in time to see him win a
Stanley Cup.
His career would end in a most unfortunate of ways. He suffered a groin injury in practice in January 0f 2004, one of the many
he had throughout his career, and the second that season. The game against Washington two nights before was his last of the
season as a result.
Currently, he serves as the goaltending development coach for the San Jose Sharks.
