Career

As a player

Brad Shaw played in his youth for the Ottawa 67’s in the Ontario Hockey League (OHL), where he already achieved an average of over 1.0 per game in his first season 1981/82 with 72 scorer points from 68 games, so that he of the Detroit Red Wings in the 1982 NHL Entry Draft was selected in the 86th position. As a result, the defender ran for two more years in Ottawa, where he won both the J. Ross Robertson Cup and the prestigious Memorial Cup with the team in 1984 , while he was personally honored with the Max Kaminsky Trophy as the best defender of the OHL and was called to the First All-Star Team of the league. In addition, he represented the Canadian U20 national team at the Junior World Championships in 1983 and 1984 , with Team Canada winning a bronze medal with him and finishing in fourth place.

For the 1984/85 season Shaw moved to the professional field after Detroit had given the rights to him in May 1984 to the Hartford Whalers and received an eight-round vote in the 1984 NHL Entry Draft . As a result, he ran from now on mainly for their farm team , the Binghamton Whalers , in the American Hockey League (AHL) and also spent almost half a season with the Salt Lake Golden Eagles in the International Hockey League (IHL). The defender made his debut for Hartford in the National Hockey League (NHL) in February 1986, but was unable to establish himself in their line-up over the next few years. During this time he was appointed to the First All-Star Team twice in the AHL and was awarded the Eddie Shore Award for best defender in the league in 1987 , before spending most of the 1989/90 season at AS Varese Hockey in Serie A1 and won the Italian championship with the team . The Canadian also played a few games for the senior national team in his home country during his time in Europe .

After his return to North America, Shaw earned a regular place in Hartford and was appointed to the NHL All-Rookie Team at the end of his first full NHL season . After eight years in the organization of the Whalers him chose the Ottawa Senators in the NHL expansion draft in 1992 from fifth position. At that time he was officially a member of the New Jersey Devils , who had signed him a few days before the draft for financial consideration. During his first season in Ottawa, the defender came with 41 points on his best offensive statistics of his NHL career, while he took over the captaincy of the Senators together with Mark Lamb and Gord Dineen the following year . In February 1995, however, Ottawa gave him on loan to the Atlanta Knights in the IHL, where he subsequently played for the Detroit Vipers from 1995 to 1999 and won the playoffs for the Turner Cup with the team in 1997 , while he was in the IHL First All -Star team was appointed.

In his final season in March 1999, the Canadian came via the waiver to the Washington Capitals , who transferred him to the St. Louis Blues only a few days later, including an eight-round suffrage in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft , who in return received their six- round suffrage sent the same draft to Washington. After the 1998/99 season Shaw ended his active career, in which he had played a total of 400 NHL games and scored 171 points; there were also 267 AHL and 390 IHL games.

During his active time with the Detroit Vipers, Shaw was also active as an assistant coach and took over this function after the end of his playing career at the Tampa Bay Lightning , before returning to the 2000/01 season as head coach of the Vipers. The IHL stopped playing the following year, however, so he moved to the AHL, where he looked after the Springfield Falcons as an assistant and then for three years the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks as head coach. He returned to the NHL in 2005 when the New York Islanders hired him as an assistant to Steve Stirling . This was released in January 2006, so Shaw coached the team on an interim basis until the end of the season.

Shaw then returned to the St. Louis Blues, where he was an assistant for ten years and under four head coaches. After the 2015/16 season, he decided to leave the organization and was introduced a little later in June 2016 as the new assistant coach of John Tortorella at the Columbus Blue Jackets . In Columbus he has since been primarily responsible for the defensive. He also acted as assistant coach to Ralph Krueger at Team Europe , which took second place at the 2016 World Cup of Hockey .
