Andrew Shaw's NHL career and contract details
Andrew Shaw, a native of Belleville, Ontario, is known for his down-home approach to the game. Scouts from the Chicago Blackhawks were drawn to his performance in the 2011 Memorial Cup with Owen Sound of the Ontario Hockey League. His numbers—two goals and seven points in four games—were impressive, but it was his style of play, toughness, and willingness to do the dirty job that drew the most attention.
The Blackhawks chose Shaw in the fifth round (139th overall) of the 2011 NHL Draft. His first pro season was split between Rockford of the American Hockey League and Chicago.
Shaw's bravado was an instant hit in Chicago after he was called up. He appeared in all 23 playoff games as Chicago won the Stanley Cup in 2013. Shaw scored on a deflection off his leg at 12:08 of the third overtime in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final against the Boston Bruins to give the Blackhawks a 4-3 victory.
Shaw played in all 23 playoff games to help the Blackhawks win another Stanley Cup in two years.
Chicago coach Joel Quenneville called Shaw "irreplaceable," but the Blackhawks traded him to the Montreal Canadiens on Jun. 24th, 2016, due to salary-cap issues. Three days later, he signed a six-year contract with the Canadiens.
After three seasons in Montreal, Shaw was traded back to Chicago on Jun. 30th, 2019.
