Clowder Chatter: Friday Panthers Open Forum

The New Jersey Devils might have a goalie crunch coming, and Nico Daws sits at the center of it.  He looks NHL ready and just showed it with a sharp outing against the Minnesota Wild . But with Jacob Markstrom nearing a return and Jake Allen in the mix, Daws could soon head back to the AHL.  That is where the calendar starts to matter.
