However, years after that success the success of those teams was tainted by the surfacing of the truth surrounding the lack of intervention by the organization. The Beach incident ultimately led to the suspension of both former General Manager, Stan Bowman and Head Coach, Joel Quenneville.
Shaw recently joined the crew from the Raw Knuckles Podcast and was asked about the Beach Scandal. During his appearance Shaw shared that he had nothing negative to say about Beach, but he also felt there was no reason for this to fall on Coach Q or the team's General Manager.
According to Shaw, after this meeting the onus should have fallen on the Human Resource department of the Blackhawks organization. But the comment that has drawn the most criticism is one Shaw made about Beach putting himself in a position to be assaulted.
