Nico Daws News: Hits waivers for AHL assignment

Daws was placed on waivers by the Devils for the purpose of assignment to AHL Utica, the team announced Sunday.

Daws got into six regular-season games with New Jersey last year, but with Jacob Markstrom and Jake Allen on the roster and healthy, Daws was never expected to be in the NHL to start 2025-26. Assuming he clears waivers, the 24-year-old Daws is slated to begin the season with AHL Utica, where he went 11-20-3 with a 3.16 GAA and an .893 save percentage across 34 appearances last year.
