#NYR Asked Tortorella what is ailing Nash: "None of your business."

Why is Torts acting like such a *****? It's not even a ridiculous question. He could've said something like status quo on the issue instead of being disrespectful to the reporters.

Well, why should he have to give in to it? He isn't required to tell everything about his team. It's better that way. Stuff won't be blown up by media and no "OmFgee RiCk Nash is injurrrd" or some junk. It's the team's business. Not the press'
 
If Nash is suffering from concussion symptoms he wouldnt be practicing. Remember when cally was gonna miss a month or the whole season? Is it always doom and gloom here?

He doesn't have to act like a d-bag everytime. He could've said something like he's still being evaluated or remain status quo.

Marc Staal played the next game after being hit by his brother. Wouldn't put it past them.

He also doesn't have to act like he has to be open about it. If he answers like that, chances are he's gonna be asked about it more next time, than he would when he tells the reporters to go away.

Then if the reporters ask it again, I'm fine with him ventilating with a simple, "I've already answered that".

You respond with something like "that's confidential". There's something to be said for politeness.

He probably is gonna say that anyhow even when he said they have no business to know what's wrong with Nash. If I was Torts I'd have answered the same way. It's a team issue, and if they don't like that Torts is being blunt about it then they probably shouldn't be asking those questions...
