Shaw has played defense for the Bruins over the last three years and had three goals and 4 assists in 44 games last season. Many people remember Shaw as the hard hitting kid from Exeter who rose through the minor hockey ranks to play Junior B for Stratford, and then Junior A for Kitch- ener, before becoming the Quebec Nordiques first round draft pick in 1982. He played for Quebec until he was traded to the Rangers in 1987 where he played for New York for four years. After a big trade in 1991 which saw the Rangers ac- quire Mark Messier, Shaw found himself playing for the Edmonton Oilers but was quickly traded to the Minnesota North Stars. He finished the 1991-92 hockey season with Minnesota before becoming a free agent. Shaw was acquired by Boston during the Bruins 1992 training camp and has provided them with a steady and dependable style of de- fensive play that contributed to the Bruins' bump and grind style, a characteristic the club has become known for. During his first year in Boston, Shaw scored 10 goals. Shaw's contract with the Bruins was about to be submitted for arbi- tration when the deal with Tampa Bay was struck; however, he was residing at his summer residence in St. Joseph during the off season and before he flew back to Boston he spoke to the Times -Advocate about playing in the NHL. Undoubtedly, Shaw will miss playing in Boston. One of the origi- nal six teams from the NHL, Boston is rich with hockey tradition. "There is so much history in Boston. It was always exciting to play in the Boston Gardens." said Shaw in a personal interview. Shaw's last game with the Bruins was against New Jersey when they were Shaw feels the nature of the sport is changing, becoming more mon- ey oriented with all the teams even- tually going to the top bidders. The average salary today for a hockey player in the NHL is $700,000 and multi-million dollar contracts are not uncommon. "It's definitely a business. Everyone gets traded now and it's all because of econom- ics," Shaw said. For example, he points out that Paul Coffey, who has ac- cumulated the most points for a defensman in the NHL, has already been traded four times. "Twenty years ago a player like that would fin- ish his career on the same club. If you're good your market value is higher and some franchises can no longer afford you," Shaw said. At 31 years -old, Shaw feels he may only he playing professional hock- ey for a few more years. He said he doesn't have any con- crete plans on life after hockey but he has 7uled out playing in Europe or taking up a career behind the bench coaching.• Despite his trade to Tampa Bay, Shaw's Boston Bruins Jersey will still hang from the ceiling of the 1:2ecreation Centre's arena. An ice rink where he played many games as a minor hockey player growing up in Exeter. "Exeter is a great town for minor hockey. The support from the coaches and parents is excellent for such a small community," he said. "Hopefully the arena will be filled with NHL sweaters donated by kids from Exeter." EXETER - South Huron District High School field hockey coach Jim Workman won't be instructing his field hockey clinic this year. Instead he has passed the honors over to a couple of field hockey vet- erans and SHDHS grads Bocci Far- quhar and Leanne Dietrich. The field hockey clinic scheduled for August 31 and 32 is designed to give girls from ages 13 to 19 a chance to acquire practical skills and practice physical fitness before the regular school season begins. "It will give interested players the opportunity to find out if field hockey is for them," said Workman. "Some of the grade nines arc a little intimidated at first. The clinic e'ill give them the chance to try the sport without the pressure of trying out," he said. Got a sports tip?

According to Shaw, the NHL is still recovering from the short sea- son due to the dispute between the players and owners which resulted in a lockout that shortened the sea- son considerably. "It hurt everybody, both the own- ers and players and it really hurt the playeis financially," said Shaw. "It wasn't a player's strike, it was a lock -out. We (the players) were willing to play through the old agreement but the owners wanted a new one right away," explained Shaw adding player salary caps was the main issue behind the dis- pute.
