Nico Daws - Page 5 - NHL News & Rumors

Starting in Boston Daws will defend the road goal Monday against Boston, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

Impact Daws will get a second straight start after stopping 36 shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over Florida. He has posted a 3-1-0 record this season with a 2.77 GAA and a .916 save percentage over four outings.

Sharp in third win Daws made 36 saves in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Panthers.

Impact A Sam Reinhart power-play tally in the second period spoiled his shutout bid, but otherwise Daws was in full control. The 23-year-old netminder has won three of four starts since being called up from AHL Utica, allowing 11 goals on 131 shots (.916 save percentage), and while he's working in a timeshare with Vitek Vanecek at the moment, Vanecek's 3.08 GAA and .885 save percentage since the beginning of December have left the door open for Daws to potentially seize the top job in the Devils' crease.

Daws stops 36 shots, Devils top Panthers 4-1 to end Florida's 9-game winning streak

Nico Daws stopped 36 shots, Jesper Bratt scored for the second straight game and the New Jersey Devils snapped Florida’s nine-game winning streak by topping the Panthers 4-1

Expected to start Saturday Daws is between the pipes at morning practice, indicating he will get the start in Florida on Saturday, according to Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site.

Impact Daws picked up his first loss of the season after two straight wins Jan. 6, stopping 36 of 41 shots as the Canucks upended the Devils 6-4. Daws has turned aside 84 of 94 shots this season, with both of his wins coming on the road. Daws will have a tough matchup as the Panthers are red-hot, winning nine games in a row.

Stands on head in loss Daws made 36 saves Saturday in a 6-4 loss to the Devils. He allowed five goals.

Impact He stood on his head in the first period when Vancouver outshot New Jersey 17-5. His teammates were on their heels and it was Daws who saved them that frame. But ultimately, he allowed the same number of goals that he'd allowed his first two starts and that was enough for the Orcas to get a strangle hold on the game. Daws has played three games in the last nine games, going 2-1-0, and may continue to see significant starts with Vitek Vanecek scuffling. He's a worthy waiver pick-up.

Set to start Saturday Daws will protect the home goal versus the Canucks on Saturday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

Impact Daws has apparently carved out a 50-50 split with Vitek Vanecek between the pipes for the Devils. The momentum is in Daws' favor -- he has won both of his starts this season, allowing five goals on 53 shots. The Canucks will be his biggest test yet, as they come in having scored 23 goals over their last six games.

JANUARY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nabs second straight win Daws stopped 23 shots in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Capitals.

Impact The 23-year-old netminder let an early lead slip away as Washington tied it up 3-3 late in the second period, but Daws held firm in the third as New Jersey pulled away. He's won both his starts since being called up last week, allowing five goals on 53 shots, and considering that Vitek Vanecek stumbled to a 3.11 GAA and .888 save percentage through eight appearances in December, the door is open for Daws to at least work his way into a timeshare in the Devils crease if he keeps getting results.

JANUARY 4, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Poised to start against Caps Daws is slated to get the starting nod on the road versus Washington on Wednesday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

Impact Daws will be making just his second NHL start of the season after stopping 25 of 27 shots in a win over the Senators on Friday. The netminder has seen limited action in the minors this year as well, going 1-2-0 with a .929 save percentage and 2.39 GAA in three games with the Comets. Daws figures to be on a short leash as the No. 2 option behind Vitek Vanecek as both Keith Kinkaid and Akira Schmid would no doubt like to take Daws' spot.

JANUARY 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impressive in season debut Daws turned aside 25 of 27 shots in a 6-2 victory over Ottawa on Friday.

Impact Daws was making his NHL season debut after posting a 2.39 GAA and a .929 save percentage through three contests with AHL Utica this season. He's getting this opportunity because Akira Schmid has struggled to the point where he was reassigned to Utica on Thursday. Vitek Vanecek remains with New Jersey, but he's done poorly as well, posting a 3.26 GAA and an .885 save percentage in 22 outings this year. If Daws can replicate his success against the Senators with any kind of consistency, then there might be an opening for him to snatch a meaningful role with the Devils.

Tending twine Friday Daws will get the starting nod in Ottawa on Friday, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports.

Impact Daws is slated to make his first NHL appearance since suiting up for 25 games during the 2021-22 campaign. He's 10-11-1 with a 3.11 GAA and an .893 save percentage in his NHL career. In three AHL appearances this season, Daws stopped 91 of 98 shots he faced.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Up from minors Daws was summoned from AHL Utica on Wednesday.

Impact Daws' recall might indicate that Vitek Vanecek or Akira Schmid is questionable for Wednesday's game, but at the moment both goaltenders are listed as being healthy. Daws has a 2.39 GAA and a .929 save percentage in three AHL contests this year.

DECEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to AHL Daws was reassigned to AHL Utica on Wednesday, per James Nichols of New Jersey Hockey Now.

Impact Daws was recalled by New Jersey on Sunday because Vitek Vanecek (undisclosed) was unavailable, but Vanecek returned to the lineup Tuesday versus Philadelphia. Daws has a 2.04 GAA and a .937 save percentage in two contests with Utica this season. He logged 25 contests with the Devils in 2021-22 but hasn't played in the NHL since.

DECEMBER 20, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Joins big club Daws was promoted from AHL Utica on Sunday.

Impact With Vitek Vanecek (undisclosed) not available Sunday, Daws was bumped up to the top level to back up Akira Schmid. Daws has not seen any NHL action since the 2021-22 campaign. He's stopped 59 of 63 shots in two AHL games this season.

DECEMBER 17, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Activated from IR and AHL bound Daws (undisclosed) was activated from non-rostered injured reserve and sent to AHL Utica on Friday.

Impact Daws suffered the injury during training camp. He was 16-14-3 with a 2.70 GAA and .904 save percentage in 33 games with Utica in 2022-23. He likely would be the first goalie recalled if there is an injury to either Vitek Vanecek or Akira Schmid.

DECEMBER 8, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Lands on IR Daws (undisclosed) was placed on the non-roster injured reserve Monday.

Impact It's unclear what Daws is dealing with but he'll miss some time to begin the 2023-24 campaign. He posted a 2.70 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 33 games with AHL Utica last year and should return to the minors once he's healthy.
