*First Trevor Zegras scored two goals and then Tyson Foerster scored two goals and then the Flyers cruised their way to victory. IT WAS GOOD. RECAP!

*Alright so we’ve got a week to go. What are the odds these boys really do it? [BSH]

*It’s obviously a lot of pressure, especially for the kids, one assumes, but the Flyers are keeping their cool down the stretch. [Inquirer]

*One of the reasons this is going so well is that the team has fully bought in to the changes coach Rick Tocchet made after the Olympic break. [NBC Sports Philly]

*About those changes; if you’re a subscriber over at Charlie’s website, you can read his breakdown of just what it is that is fueling this success over the last month or so. [PHLY]

*One thing Tocchet is explicitly trying to do: stop the bleeding on the power play. [BSH]

*It was that Olympic experience that seems to be the catalyst for his elevated play since he got back from Italy. [The Athletic]

*So uhhhh remember a couple of weeks ago, in that game against the Blue Jackets, when Matvei Michkov was called for diving and it was a total joke of a call? They fined him for that. [BSH]

*Anyway in more positive news, Noted Good Guy Garnet Hathaway has been nominated for the King Clancy. [BSH]

*And finally, it’s a big week for everybody but maybe even more so for Sam Ersson. He’s going to see the net again, at least once, and the way he finishes this season may mean a lot for his career moving forward. [BSH]
