Chicago Blackhawks forward Andrew Shaw will not be fined for his hit on St. Louis Blues defenseman Barret Jackman, reports Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times.

The play happened with 17 minutes left in the second period of the Blues' 2-1 victory over Chicago on Sunday, when Shaw left his feet and tried to drive a shoulder into Jackman. Jackman fell to the ice to avoid the hit and he was brushed in the head by Shaw’s knee.
