Andrew Shaw News: Shaw agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Blackhawks on Tuesday.

Shaw agreed to a two-year contract extension with the Blackhawks on Tuesday.

Shaw emerged as an important member of the Blackhawks' offense in the Stanley Cup playoffs last season en route to a championship. Through 18 games this season, he has four goals and seven assists. With the depth of scorers on the Chicago squad, he works on a deeper line, but still has the long-term opportunity to work into the rotation for the Blackhawks.
