The Blackhawks need Andrew Shaw now more than ever

This Blackhawks team looks a lot different than what fans are used to seeing. As Chicago moves forward with the rebuild, the changes are just going to continue. The team is building around younger players like Dylan Strome and Alex DeBrincat, so it is nice to have a familiar face like Andrew Shaw around.

The road back to hockey was not easy for Andrew Shaw, who missed most of last season due to concussion issues, but he made it back. The Blackhawks part-time assistant captain has been a great leader thus far for the Blackhawks and has been a difference-maker on the ice as well.
