Blackhawks' Shaw, Smith done for season

Chicago Blackhawks forwards Andrew Shaw and Zack Smith will miss the remainder of the 2019-20 season, the team announced Saturday.

Shaw, 28, has been sidelined with a concussion since Nov. 30. The 5-foot-11 winger tallied three goals and seven points through 28 games this campaign. The Blackhawks re-acquired Shaw from the Montreal Canadiens in June 2019 after trading him in 2016.

Smith will undergo back surgery on March 6. The 31-year-old contributed four goals and 11 points across 50 games this season, his first with the Blackhawks.

Chicago sits eight points out of the second Western Conference wild-card spot entering Saturday's action and will likely miss the playoffs for the third consecutive campaign.
