History
2007-08: Logan Shaw was chosen in the first round, 12th overall, of the 2008 QMJHL Entry Draft by the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles.
2008-09: In his QMJHL rookie season, Shaw played in 49 games for the Screaming Eagles. He scored 5 goals and added 3 assists for 8 points. Shaw played for Team Atlantic at the 2009 World U-17 Hockey Challenge, picking up 2 assists in 5 games.
2009-10: In 67 games for the Screaming Eagles, Shaw scored 9 goals and added 15 assists for 24 points. Shaw registered no points in 5 playoff games.
2010-11: In 68 games for the Screaming Eagles, Shaw scored 26 goals and added 20 assists for 46 points. Shaw picked up 1 assist in 4 playoff games.
2011-12: Shaw returned to Cape Breton for his fourth junior season and skated in 37 games with the Screaming Eagles before being obtained by Quebec in a trade deadline deal. In 60 games between the two teams he scored 20 goals with 21 assists and was minus-23 with 46 penalty minutes. Eight of his 20 goals came on the power play. Quebec finished third in the East Division and reached the second round in the playoffs. Shaw scored 6 goals (five on the power play) with 5 assists and was plus-two with 12 penalty minutes in 11 playoff games. He signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Panthers in May, 2012.
Talent Analysis
A big burly forward, Shaw doesn't hesitate to use his frame to his advantage, but he is far from just a checking line winger. From taking punishment in front of the net to winning battles along the boards, his combination of size, smarts and ability is an attractive mix. A strong skater with a willingness to drive to the net, he can also help out on the penalty kill. In the QMJHL playoffs, Shaw displayed some offensive touch on the power play, as well.
Future
Shaw will return to Quebec in the QMJHL for what should be a full year under Coach Patrick Roy. Shaw projects as a two-way, shutdown winger with size and some scoring ability, but is a project player at this point, with several years of junior and minor-league hockey ahead of him.
