Light has been shed on what kept Montreal Canadiens forward Andrew Shaw out of a series-deciding Game 6 loss.

Shaw was held out of the game due to concussion-like symptoms, and was not made available to the media as the team cleared out the locker room on Monday, per the Canadiens.

In the five previous playoff games in which he appeared, Shaw recorded 13 shots and seven penalty minutes, including five earned in a fight with Brendan Smith during Game 5.
