Shayne Gostisbehere Riding A Four-Game Goal Streak
Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere has matched a franchise record with a four-game goal streak among defensemen. Dougie Hamilton was previously the lone blue-liner in Hurricanes/Whalers history to score in four consecutive games. Gostisbehere is also the first-ever defenseman to score as many as four goals for the team through the first five games of a season. He's added one assist to his tally during the very prolific start to the campaign. Each of his last three goals has come on the power play, and Gostisbehere's success with the man advantage could continue on Thursday in a matchup against the Calgary Flames, who have a 76.2 percent penalty kill.

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere found the back of the net in the second straight game on Friday evening against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Detroit Red Wings defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere suffered an upper-body injury in Wednesday's matchup against the Rangers. He left in the third period following a hit from behind.

The 30-year-old recently had a four-point outing and has played well for the Red Wings, recording 18 points (five goals, 13 assists) in 20 games.

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere opened his scoring account for the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs with two assists in Friday's Game 2 win over New Jersey.

Gostisbehere then had an even-strength assist on a Martin Necas marker. Prior to Friday's action, Gostisbehere was Carolina's lone defenseman without a single point for the 2023 postseason.

Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere (undisclosed) is expected to be in the lineup Tuesday against the Islanders despite leaving the morning skate early. The offensive-minded blue-liner appeared to have tweaked something and left the ice in pain, but Hurricanes head coach Rod Brind'Amour has said that Gostisbehere "should be fine" for Game 5. The 30-year-old hasn't had a great playoff campaign so far, going scoreless in four outings with a minus-three rating, but with the team having lost a number of its top-six forward, the blue line has played a big part in the scoring. Gostisbehere and Jalen Chatfield are the only Hurricanes defensemen without a point through four games, while Brent Burns is tied for the team lead in scoring with five points.

He's had two goals and two assists in his first couple of appearances with the Hurricanes. Gostisbehere's minutes have dropped since coming over from Arizona, but he's got a lot more talent around him and an offensively-gifted defenseman such as him shouldn't have any problems getting on the score sheet regularly. For the season overall, Gostisbehere now has 12 goals and 35 points in 54 games.
The Carolina Hurricanes have added defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere to their blue line, acquiring the pending unrestricted free agent for a third-round draft pick from Arizona. Gostisbehere moves on from the Coyotes after playing only a season and a half on the team. He was able to resurrect his career in the desert, recording 82 points across 134 games.

He started things off with a power-play helper and added two assists from even-strength situations.

He gets to face the Oilers next on Thursday
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere was traded to the Arizona Coyotes for future considerations on Thursday. Arizona also picked up a second-round pick and a seventh-round pick in the 2022 NHL draft. Gostisbehere tallied nine goals and 11 assists in 41 regular-season games for the Flyers in 2021. He averaged just under 20 minutes of total ice time per game last year. The Pembroke Pines, Florida native is a speedy offensive defenseman who sometimes struggles in his team's defensive zone. If Arizona is the right situation for Gostisbehere, he could help a fantasy manager lineup as he is offensively gifted.
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere (knee) will likely return to the lineup on Saturday against New Jersey. The 28-year-old has missed a week of action with a sprained MCL. Gostisbehere was back at practice on Friday and skated on the second defensive pairing with Travis Sanheim. The Florida native boasts 16 points in 37 games this season, with 13 of the points coming on home ice. He has produced 81 shots and 41 hits with a minus-four rating. Gostisbehere used to a very exciting offensive-minded blueliner, but his production has dropped like a rock in recent years, and he's struggled to stay fantasy relevant even in deep formats. Forward Kevin Hayes, who was scratched on Thursday against the Devils, is also set to return to the lineup.
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere (knee) is expected to miss seven to 10 days with an MCL sprain and won't play on Sunday versus the Devils. He'll be replaced by Samuel Morin. Gostisbehere has had a bit of a scoring surge during the second half of the season but still boasts only 16 points in 37 games. Morin, who has had awful luck with injuries in his career, has skated in 16 games this season, posting one goal with 29 hits, 12 shots and 35 penalty minutes. Nolan Patrick will also return to the lineup on Sunday, taking over for Nicolas Aube-Kubel.
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere had a goal and an assist in Sunday's 5-3 loss against Buffalo. Joel Farabee also enjoyed a two-point outing with a power-play goal and an assist. Gostisbehere has not had a good time for most of the season, and he even got waived at the end of last month, but the 27-year-old has come back strongly and has three goals in his last four appearances. He is tied with Arizona's Jakob Chychrun for most goals (8) among defensemen since Feb. 24. Gostisbehere sits on 15 points through 31 games with 72 shots and 31 blocks. He will look to keep up his good goal-scoring form against Washington on Tuesday.
Shayne Gostisbehere Set To Return To Flyers Lineup
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere, who was waived by the team on Tuesday, has been called up from the taxi squad, and he's set to rejoin the lineup for Saturday's matchup against the Islanders. Forwards Nolan Patrick and Oskar Lindblom will also draw back into the lineup, and Tanner Laczynski is set to make his NHL debut. Gostisbehere was a very productive offensive d-man early in his career, and he's had his moments this season as well, but the 27-year-old has proven to be a defensive liability, and thus his role has diminished. However, he should have plenty of motivation to perform now after getting waived and going unclaimed. Gostisbehere is on five goals and 11 points for the season in 25 outings with 60 shots.
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere will be a healthy scratch as his team faces off against the Buffalo Sabres on Wednesday night. The 27-year-old, who was placed on waivers just yesterday by the Flyers, has been assigned to the taxi squad. Gostisbehere has somewhat fallen out of favor with his club after struggling to produce consistent offense once again in 2020-2021. The Florida-born rearguard has just 11 points (five goals, six assists), a minus-one rating, seven power-play points and 60 shots through 25 games this season. While Gostisbehere (9% owned in Yahoo! leagues) has flashed his puck-moving abilities in the past, he can probably be safely dropped in most fantasy leagues at this point.
Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere will be back in action on Monday against the Islanders after sitting out three games as a healthy scratch. He will replace Nate Prosser in the lineup. Gostisbehere was a minus-eight in three games prior to getting scratched, so he clearly needed some time to reset himself. The 27-year-old blueliner has five goals and eight points for the season in 20 games with 52 shots and 25 blocks. He's done a decent job in 2020-21 after having a complete off year offensively a year ago. Sean Couturier (lower body) could be back in action for Philly as well.
