Playing career
Shaw played major junior hockey with the Medicine Hat Tigers in the Western Hockey League (WHL), before he was selected by the Minnesota Wild in the fourth round, 97th overall, of the 2017 NHL Entry Draft.
Named as the Hat Tigers captain prior to the 2017–18 season, Shaw suffered a torn ACL playing for the Minnesota Wild at the Traverse City Prospect Tournament in September and did not play in a game for the Medicine Hat Tigers. Having rehabilitated his injury he was signed by the Wild's AHL affiliate, the Iowa Wild, on an amateur tryout to end the season and made his professional debut on April 10, 2018, in a 2-1 victory over the Rockford IceHogs. Shaw was then signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Wild on April 27, 2018.[1]
Entering his fourth season in the AHL with the Iowa Wild in 2021–22 campaign, Shaw tallied 14 points through 18 games before receiving his first recall to the NHL on December 6, 2021.[2] He made his NHL debut with the Wild, featuring on the fourth-line in a 5-2 victory over the San Jose Sharks on December 9, 2021.[3]
