The fact that "you can play" is partnered with the NHL means this should be an automatic suspension for Shaw. Forget the middle fingers, you get caught yelling f****** on a camera in a league that's publicly working so hard to make itself welcoming to the LGBT community and awaiting the first player to come out?
I'm glad the 'you can play' team is aware and will be pressuring the league to do something. Personally I'd love to see the NHL come out and announce "Andrew Shaw has been suspended indefinitely pending a hearing". I doubt they'll have the balls and will just hope it goes away.
