While Shaw has significant offensive potential, knee injuries resulting in a lost season rarely work out perfectly, and his development may have taken a major hit. A full recovery from the injury could warrant middle-6 potential, but for now he's got a bit of a hill to overcome.
KHL commit with big body and average scoring abilities
Big and powerful forward who can play both center and wing. Decent offensive skills but lacks high-end talent.
Quick, skilled center who works hard and can create offense.
Big-bodied centerman who played a hard, heavy game in all areas on the ice. Has a desire to win puck battles and sticks up for his teammates when needed. Not much of a playmaker or shooter, but makes a strong net-front presence.
Versatile playmaking forward who has creative upside and strong work ethic.
Speedy centre with average puck skills. Skating can be compared to players at an elite level. Needs to increase consistency of scoring in order to be a fantasy asset.
Decent-framed center who brings pace and intensity, solid playmaking and two-way play. Needs to improve his manipulation, deceptiveness and physical game, but shows middle-six upside.
Undersized center who pairs a high-motor with a strong offensive skillset. Top-six upside who can play any forward position.
