Daws plays with great positional awareness, staying deep because his size enables him to simply get in front of the puck. He doesn't leave shooters with a lot of open area, and he doesn't allow a lot of rebounds to test his speed and recovery. His posture is excellent, taking up shooting room at the top of the net. -EliteProspects 2020 NHL Draft Guide
