The Philadelphia Flyers will debut defensive prospect Shayne Gostisbehere Saturday against the Detroit Red Wings.
Gostisbehere, selected in the third round in 2011, gets an opportunity with injuries to Andrew MacDonald and Braydon Coburn.
He nearly made the team out of training camp with an impressive preseason, but will have spent three games with Lehigh Valley of the American Hockey League before getting a chance to play a real game with the big club.
