Brad Shaw has brought his wealth of hockey experience to the Columbus Blue Jackets. After playing a combined 15 years in the IHL, AHL and NHL as a defenseman, Shaw got into coaching. His most recent stint before joining Columbus in 2016 was 10 years with the St. Louis Blues as an assistant.
Since being with the CBJ, Shaw’s presence has been felt on the blue line. He is working with a very young defensive core that is extremely talented, so Shaw’s role in the organization is that much more important. John Tortorella mentioned his worth in an interview last season.
