I watched Shaw quite a bit in Florida. He's an honest player who won't skimp on the work ethic. He definitely won't hurt you defensively, quite responsible. He brings a bit of physicality to his game as well with his 6'4" and 210 pound body. He can play center, but mostly plays wing, and has always had a pretty strong forecheck as part of his game. Skill isn't his biggest attribute, but he'll pot a goal if he gets an opportunity.
He wouldn't be a terrible depth player to add, but he's definitely in the conversation of 13/14th forward. Not a starter. The Flames forward prospects lack size, so he's a nice option that way.
