1- Shaw put himself in a vulnerable position. His fault. 2- Krug knew what he was doing. He could've played the puck, he chose to play the man instead.
But no, you either have to be a stuck-up Bruins or Habs fan and you can't admit both sides have their part of responsibilities.
Shaw has gotta have his head pretty far down to get a headshot from Torey Krug. Shaw put himself in a vulnerable position so I think it should only be a major without a game misconduct/suspension. But Borowiecki got 2 games after Toffoli put himself in a vulnerable position so who knows what the POS have to say
I am a Habs fan. It sucks that Shaw got hurt but nothing dirty here. It all happens fast. Krug is going for the puck and sees a Habs player and prepares for a hit. Unfortunately Shaw head is low and there's contact resulting in Shaw being shaken. Good physical game.
Where was Price's blocker when you needed it? Good to see someone light Shaw up…don't lead with you head! As expected the whines from Montreal today, the day after, are nice and loud.
LOL i called this literally a week ago, shades of Matt Cooke! In the words of grapes; "if you run around like a dummy hurting people and causing chaos, somebody will get you!!!" -.-
I don't like the Bruins, but the DoPS made the right call with not sanctioning Torey Krug. It's just unfortunate positioning more than any reckless or malicious intent to result in a hit like that.
Funny how when a defensemen purposely turns his back to a forechecker at the last second and gets drilled from behind is a penalty and this is not, assuming the putting yourself in a bad position rule still applies.

Krug not the best at hitting but he is a good hitter!
Beautiful!
Oh it's shaw. Move along.
He should've been wearing a face shield
Dirty hit, the head was the main point of impact also Krug used his elbow
I swear if he gets suspended, it'll be for "too hard of a hit"
Headshot…?
The fact that it was Shaw that got it makes it even better!
Did someone get the plate number of that truck?
Nice response from the Habs.
Any hit on Shaw is a good hit.
Suck it Shaw! Had that one coming for a while.

Did someone get the plate number of that truck- I mean Prius?
Shaw's body language as he's just sitting on the ice
"God dammit man"
I did this to a player but it looked the same as this, so I'm thinking it's not on purpose.
Why can't anyone get a balanced opinion on this?

Hit to the head
Not gonna lie as a Hawks fan who used to love this guy he deserved it
The only Hab I've been wanting to see get nailed all year. Don't even care that it's by a Bruin, too bad Krug didn't hit him harder.

"right in the face slash head"
My new all-time favorite video
clean hit krug answered the bell after that hit unlike that coward emelin
Does the face count as the head?
There's no rivalry like an Original Six rivalry!
Even thought Shaw put himself in a vulnerable position, the main point of contact seems to be his head
Lmao Shaw deserves this. If you manage to get hit in the head by a smaller player who's bending at the knees, it's your fault.

i am surprised that price didn't get a d-man to hold krug down well he fed him a bunch of dirty blocker punches
The hit was dirty, but Shaw put himself in that vulnerable position. There really shouldn't be a suspension if that's the case.
OMG, I'm surprised some Habs fan has not "CALLED THE COPS" LMAO!!!
shaw should just retire
LOL i called this literally a week ago, shades of Matt Cooke! In the words of grapes; "if you run around like a dummy hurting people and causing chaos, somebody will get you!!!" -.-
good hit period that clown shaw runs his mouth and now he payed for it lmao now habs fans crying about it fk those cocksuckers
as a hawks, fan, I dont like the hit, but he got caught in a bad situation, and thats his fault
He hit the head then his chest. It's a borderline clean ht
If it was the other way around Boston would've killed Shaw for hitting Krug

Right on the button
does ice hockey have any rules?

pretty gross play.
Face/Head area of Shaw? Way to clear that one up, bud.
Good. He deserved it.
Krug had no reason to headhit him. Yet when Shaw ''Headhit'' he get a 5 minutes and match suspension. My ass is made of gold?
That hit surprised me. I don't usually expect that from Krug.
song at 0:32 ?
It doesn't get much better than this
