The Arizona Coyotes are on a hot streak. They just beat the Senators last night, as André Tourigny's club won 5 of their last 6 games.

One of the big contributors to the team success is former Flyers defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere. Fletcher traded him to Arizona - along with a 2nd and 7th round picks - for Future Considerations.
Well, let's say that Gostisbehere is really proving his former club wrong...
Must read on FlyersInsider
With 37 points, he'll be the Flyers best scorer on defense and 3rd point producer just behind Cam Atkinson and Claude Giroux...
I understand why Fletcher wanted to trade him. He was (it's still the case) a defensive liability and he was way too expensive at 4.5M$ per year to play limited minutes on the 3rd pair. But the Flyers could've really use him as the powerplay quarterback...
But what he did to replace him was wrong.
He transformed Shayne Gostisbehere and Robert Hagg into Keith Yandle and Rasmus Ristolainen. In my book, that's not a "W".
