Don’t forget, “I see Fuhr as more of a tandem guy. If he’s the number one, I see him getting between 50 and 60 starts.”Imagine Torts coaching Edmonton in the 80s.
“Look, Gretzky’s ass is gonna remain on the bench until he starts backchecking more and blocking shots. And Coffey better stop carrying the puck so much and remember that he’s a goddamn defenseman!”
“We need more players like MacTavish and Beukeboom if we want to win!”

The understatement of the centuryTortorella is an idiot
DLo saying him and Torts didn''t see eye to eye
Deslauriers was lucky to get any ice time at all.DLo saying him and Torts didn''t see eye to eye
Let's hope he hates the next coach even worse.Deslauriers was lucky to get any ice time at all.
Someone replied ...perhaps they should raise a banner for that and I am in tears lolthese guys don't get it. no one is questioning that they're giving effort. they are simply not talented enough to win consistently. it doesn't matter how much effort you put in, or how much grit/toughness you have. if your team doesn't have a high enough skill level, YOU WILL LOSE.
You gotta admit though Jeff Beukeboom is the best hockey name ever. I'd draft a Jeff Beukeboom on name alone.Imagine Torts coaching Edmonton in the 80s.

Shame his son (2010 TBL 3rd round pick) never even signed his ELC.You gotta admit though Jeff Beukeboom is the best hockey name ever. I'd draft a Jeff Beukeboom on name alone.
I mean, you could roll downhill really fast! Stay positive BifThat quote doesn't make much sense. That which impedes motion is often also impeding action. For example, Flyers management decisions are akin to removing all of your arms and legs. Your motion is impeded. Good luck taking action.
MacT would've played 19 minutes as the 1C in a must win game.Imagine Torts coaching Edmonton in the 80s.

C’mon, the Kul-cha is almost right, winning will follow.these guys don't get it. no one is questioning that they're giving effort. they are simply not talented enough to win consistently. it doesn't matter how much effort you put in, or how much grit/toughness you have. if your team doesn't have a high enough skill level, YOU WILL LOSE.
