It had been over a year of injuries, inconsistent play, and a battle with COVID-19. And through all of that, Shayne Gostisbehere has come out on the other side. The latter, of course, was an unfortunate direction for a player looking to have a bounce-back year for the Flyers.
The air was cleared before training camp and Gostisbehere was poised to hit the ground running. He was paired with Ivan Provorov for a majority of camp as Alain Vigneault going to hold him back. And then right before the Flyers scrimmage, it was announced that Gostisbehere would be unavailable.
