(Photo: Kirby Lee, Imagn Images) Seemingly regardless of whether he makes the NHL or not, top Philadelphia Flyers [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers] prospect Porter Martone is a massive underdog to win the 2026 Calder Trophy. FanDuel Sportsbook [https://sportsbook.fanduel.com/navigation/nhl] currently has the 2025 No. 6 overall pick at a whopping +30000 to win the Calder this season, which has an implied probability of 0.33%. Not 33%, 0.33% - not even a single percent. Montreal Canadiens starlet Ivan Demidov is the heavy favorite at this point in the summer, leading the pack at +270. San Jose's No. 2 overall pick, Michael Misa, was listed at +1200 alongside newly minted Edmonton forward Ike Howard [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/latest-news/ike-howard-cites-former-flyers-defenseman-as-inspiration-for-oilers-number]. Unless this was simply a clerical error and a massive oversight, 2025 No. 1 overall pick Matthew Schaefer was not listed in FanDuel's odds at all. Playmkaing forwards Maxim Shabanov [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/flyers-officially-lose-out-on-maxim-shabanov] and James Hagens [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/why-the-flyers-passed-on-james-hagens-in-the-nhl-draft] - both of whom very well could've ended up Flyers this summer - were listed at +2300 and +3000, respectively. Flyers' Porter Martone Sets Sights on Early NHL Debut [https://deweb-519a7.b-cdn.net/post-images/3a908696-b0b3-406c-b976-8f8ddd6d85a9.webp] Flyers' Porter Martone Sets Sights on Early NHL Debut Just one day into on-ice activities at development camp, the hype around top <a href="https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers">Philadelphia Flyers</a> prospect Porter Martone is already growing. [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/latest-news/flyers-porter-martone-sets-sights-on-early-nhl-debut] As for Martone, it seems like the oddsmakers are banking on him heading to the NCAA, possibly with Michigan State [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/latest-news/isaac-howard-trade-opens-ncaa-door-even-wider-for-porter-martone] University alongside fellow Flyers prospect Shane Vansaghi. Martone isn't alone at the bottom, though. Center Jett Luchanko, the Flyers' 2024 first-round pick, also made the cut at +30000. Neither 18-year-old appears to have an abundantly clear path to an NHL roster spot, but injuries (Tyson Foerster [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/flyers-built-to-survive-tyson-foerster-injury]) and uncertainty down the middle (Trevor Zegras [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/flyers-depth-chart-1-0-early-prospects-outlook-roster-depth]) could make for opportunity in training camp. And, for the Flyers as a team, they have the third-worst odds to win the Metropolitan Division this season, sitting at +2000. Only Columbus (+2200) and Pittsburgh (+8500) are worse, and the New York Islanders are also within range at +1700. Flyers Reportedly Rejected Islanders Trade to Secure Porter Martone [https://deweb-519a7.b-cdn.net/post-images/7fcbc8d2-61a7-49f8-ab59-51cc814251c8.webp] Flyers Reportedly Rejected Islanders Trade to Secure Porter Martone The <a href="https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers">Philadelphia Flyers</a> were open to lots of things ahead of the NHL Draft, but, ultimately, a bold New York Islanders trade offer wasn't enough to pull them away from selecting Porter Martone with the sixth overall pick. [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/philadelphia-flyers/flyers-reportedly-rejected-islanders-trade-to-secure-porter-martone] The four other teams in the division are comfortably ahead of the Flyers, with odds of +650 or better. If you wanted to throw a few bucks on a Stanley Cup, you could do worse than +8000. Honestly, if the Flyers did make it that far, Martone might have a little something to do with it. Just something to keep in mind!
