*The Flyers took the train down to D.C. to take on the Capitals tonight and boy oh boy is it imperative that they keep the wins coming. There’s a chance we see Porter Martone tonight, but this crazy kid was trying to get into the game on SUNDAY. [BSH]

*If he doesn’t play tonight he will definitely be playing at home on Thursday. And when he does play, here’s what we ought to expect. [Flyers]

*Martone faced The Beats yesterday and explained that joining the Flyers after Michigan was eliminated was a very easy choice for him. [BSH]

*Always nice to read an opinion from outside The Bubble, like this one on whether or not Martone will actually help the Flyers with this push to make the playoffs. [Sportsnet]

*But yeah tonight is a big game. If for no other reason that the Flyers have built some very, very strong momentum over the last few games and they really have to capitalize on it. [The Athletic]

*Amidst all the Porter Martone hullabaloo yesterday, we also learned the the Flyers are Trevor Zegras are talking extension. [BSH]

*And finally, we are getting to that time of year when the fans of eliminated teams begin to select which, if any, bandwagon they will join for the playoffs. Your boys might not be on the radar yet, but a few more wins here and they’re going to be a WAGON. [ESPN]
