The fact that they haven’t told Torts to knock this off with a “partner” of the Flyers due to his podcast tells me the organization is behind it and encourages is.

Torts didn’t hold back with Larry Brooks. What he is doing now is tame by comparison

It’s BS. In the past Conlin and other true journalists would not have allowed this type of behavior by a coach/manager to go by unchallenged. If Torts can’t handle the heat of questions from the press, he should resign. PR is part of his job. Dealing with the ASFs of the press is part of his job. Acting like a four year old is unacceptable. Roberts should straighten him out on this. It’s bad for the brand of the Flyers and Comcast.

I don’t remember if the Rangers told Torts to knock it off or not. I didn’t have a issue with Torts saying something after he first heard what ASF said but that should of been it honestly. Go back to business as usual Unless this is a work between the 2 guys.

Brooks at least went back & forth with Tortorella in person to his credit. ASF just takes it & lets Therien rant about it on his behalf on their podcast after the fact.

ASF is a lard laden cowardly bitch.

Unfortunately, you're probably right
You seem very upset by it. It'll be ok. ASF deserves every bit of it
Bill Conlin? Didn't think I'd ever see that name again used in a positive fashion,

In his tenure here, Torts has demonstrated he will routinely just not do his job. He doesn't care, and no one in the organization questions it.

Was the “illness” actually this injury? Seems to be odd timing and wouldn’t be surprised to hear they once again rushed someone back.

Since this is part of the Ristolainen article, I excerpted a part of trade speculation...

Flyers Looking at Centres
It is no secret the Flyers lack depth down the middle of the ice, and the front office has been doing their due diligence around the league in order to address it. I’ve been told that the Flyers have been looking at younger centremen across the NHL, potentially needing a new home and buy-low options to jump on.
Buffalo’s Peyton Krebs is a name the Flyers reportedly like, and while he is a player the Flyers have scouted, it is important to note there haven’t been any talks between the two clubs.
Casey Mittlestadt of the Sabres and Cody Glass of the Nashville Predators are two names the Flyers have taken looks on, but I’m told that neither player is of interest to the team.
Anaheim Ducks forward Trevor Zegras has seen his name out there the last several weeks, obviously having people speculate if the Flyers would pounce on it. Checking in on this, I don’t get the sense Zegras is an option for the Flyers at this time. I don’t think this has to do one way or another on how they feel about Zegras as a player, but more to do with them not feeling they have the assets to pry him out of Anaheim. Things can certainly change, but I wouldn’t expect any traction with Zegras and the Flyers in the near future.
Dallas Stars’ prospect pivots Maverik Bourque and Logan Stankhoven are two names I’ve heard many are high on, though I can’t say for certain the Flyers have scouted or have interest in. I don’t imagine the Stars are in any rush to trade them but, as Pagnotta has reported, they are in the market for a right shot defenceman. With Evgeni Dadonov out long term, they may be looking for a forward, too.
Again, important not to rush to any conclusions, but the Flyers are doing their due diligence across the league on young centremen.

The Dallas youngsters would be the prize, and a creative GM should at least be able to add to someone like Walker to at least get the conversation going.

What a weird assortment of names is my takeaway. Proven top 6 talent, possible top 6 talent, 4th liners. What are they looking for?
