The Philadelphia Flyers are likely to be buyers at the NHL trade deadline and it seems if they want to land something relevant, one specific piece is going the other way. Last week, TSN released their updated Trade Bait Board and Shayne Gostisbehere found himself in the Top 10.Gostisbehere found himself at #7 to be exact and after about two years of speculation, it seems that Gostisbehere will actually be on his way out this year. Sam Carchidi of Philly.com points out that it seems head coach Alain Vigneault has found his preferred defensive pairings and it doesn't include Gostisbehere. Carchidi points out that the Flyers have gone 5-2 since Gostisbehere has been injured and when he was healthy, it's clear he's struggled under Vigneault's system. He also points out that packaging Ghost with a draft pick could probably land the Flyers a significant offensive piece.Gostisbehere has no trade protection but does carry $4.5million cap hit for three years which the Flyers might have to retain a bit of to make a deal work.
