Shayne Gostisbehere of the Philadelphia Flyers set an NHL record for a rookie defenseman with a point in his 11th consecutive game when he scored a power-play goal 3:49 into the third period against the New Jersey Devils on Saturday at Wells Fargo Center.
Gostisbehere broke the record of Barry Beck, who had two 10-game point streaks as a rookie with the Colorado Rockies in the 1977-78 season. Gostisbehere also set a Flyers rookie record for longest point streak, eclipsing the previous mark of 10 games set by Mikael Renberg in 1993-94.
