Andrew Shaw could be facing a suspension from the NHL for his hit on Phoenix goaltender Mike Smith.
Shaw picked up a five minute charging major and a game misconduct after his collision with the Coyotes netminder. Smith was down for a few minutes but eventually got up and returned to action. "He went to play the puck and his stick came up toward my face so I tried to get out of the way of it. Unfortunately I made contact. I didn't try to hit him but unfortunately I did," Shaw said. "I'm just glad he's OK and he could finish the game." The NHL should rule on Monday as to the fate of Smith since the series does not resume until Tuesday for Game 3 in Chicago. Stay tuned.
