Gostisbehere

Former Union defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere notched his first pro goal on Wednesday to help lead the American Hockey League's Lehigh Valley Phantoms to a 5-1 win over St. John's.

The goal, a power-play tally, was a laser from the center-point at 17:25 of the second period that pushed the Phantoms lead to 4-1.

In addition to the goal, Gostisbehere finished with an assist and a plus-2 rating. He was named the game's third star.

After missing nearly all of last season with a torn ACL in his left knee, Gostisbehere is off to a promising start this year with a goal and three assists in seven games.
