Andrew Shaw made quite a first impression with his new club Tuesday night.
The Montreal Canadiens forward was ejected from the club's preseason tilt against the Washington Capitals after hammering defenseman Connor Hobbs with a devastating hit from behind.
Shaw dropped the gloves with forward Nathan Walker following the hit, doing his best to get the home crowd into it by egging fans on mid-fight.
Shaw was handed 30 minutes worth of penalties on the play, including a game misconduct.
