If the Devils truly believe Daws may be the goalie of the future they need to acquire a proven commodity immediately. A run for the playoffs can be a wrecking ball to a young goalie’s confidence. It appears there is already some fraying in the ranks and the next 7 weeks could really do a number on Daws if the Devils just keep him in the fire.
It will cost them, but Jersey can avoid a lot of both present and future pain if they acquire a proven guy to handle the load and shepherd Daws.
