I don’t think Andrew Shaw will ever be confused for an upstanding citizen of the game and his actions in Game 4 confirmed that notion. It wasn’t just one moment in the game, rather a series of terrible, terrible moments.
Here is the video of his transgressions:

At the 1:02 mark Shaw visibly says a homophobic slur.
At the 1:35 mark you can clearly see him flipping off the referees.
Both of these aren’t just terrible things on the ice – these are terrible moments in general as a human being.
