Gostisbehere watch begins

by Ryan Fay

One of the biggest offseason storylines will be the status of sophomore defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere.

The blueliner could return for his junior season or he could be wooed into the pro ranks by the Philadelphia Flyers, who picked him in the third round of last year's draft.

But Philadelphia Daily News writer Frank Seravalli reported the Flyers have no plans to try to lure Gostisbehere away... at least for now.

"According to a source, the Flyers do not have plans 'at this time' to try and convince top defensive prospect Gostisbehere to leave college early and turn pro," Seravalli wrote.

Gostisbehere had another strong season. He piled up 26 points in 36 games for Union and added a goal and an assist for Team USA during its gold medal run at the World Junior Championships.
