Montreal Canadiens forward Andrew Shaw won't have a hearing for Thursday's hit on Columbus Blue Jackets defenseman Adam McQuaid, a league spokesperson told TSN's Pierre LeBrun.

Shaw was handed a two-minute minor for interference on the play, while McQuaid, who has a history of concussions, left the game and didn't return.

After the game, Blue Jackets head coach John Tortorella called the hit "ridiculously suspendable."

Shaw has been suspended three times in his career, most recently in 2016.
