Flyers' Gostisbehere to be held out of lineup again
James Guillory / USA TODAY Sports
Once again, Shayne Gostisbehere will watch from above.
The Philadelphia Flyers second-year defenseman is expected to be scratched for a third straight game with the St. Louis Blues in town Monday.
It will be the fifth time this season that Gostisbehere's served as a healthy scratch.
The Calder Trophy runner-up from last season is mired in a 27-game goalless drought and has just four goals and 17 assists all season after galvanizing the club following his summoning last fall.
Gostisbehere's scratches have been a contentious talking point among fans and media. It appears those feelings have spilled into the Flyers' locker room:
Shayne Gostisbehere still out. I think his sitting is starting to grow old with some of the other players.
