The Flyers made a surprising decision yesterday in waiving Shayne Gostisbehere. Now that the dust has settled and Ghost has somehow cleared waivers, we’re left with a slightly confusing picture on the surface…until you dig a little deeper.
You’ll be hard-pressed to find a Flyers fan who agreed with the waiving of Gostisbehere, who was not only one of the lone bright spots in a dreary month that saw every ounce of life sucked out of the team, but he was also one of the very few to be outspoken and accountable after performances that simply demanded it.
