"You don't win X's and O's; you win with Bobby's and Joel's"

Real pros play hurt. This is the kind of caveman shit that causes players to hide health problems.

 

[McD37]

One would almost forget one is a stanley cup winner overachieving with mediocre team and the other could not beat over 0,500 team to save his "f***ing life" ( in mike mcdaniel voice) having probably the most valuable non qb in football

 

[VladDrag]

Winning a Stanley cup 20 years ago means nothing.

You can't f***ing do this with a salary cap. He has years left. Don't turn him into dead cap. We already have Ellis sucking down 6mil every offseason.

Guy remains an idiot.

As @JojoTheWhale is fond of saying: you couldn’t even make a two line pass when Tortorella won the Cup.

Now, I think Tortorella has been more adaptable to league changes (at least 5v5) than other dinosaurs, but that Cup means as much today as having Zombie Toe Blake design your team’s systems.

 

[Striiker]

Giving Tortorella credit for the teams record is about as dumb as it gets.

Isn’t that me?

Torts needs to answer for why a nutjob who took his shirt off and tried to fight a player is still incharge of our PP after it has been bottom of the league for his entire year and a half here.

Hiring Rocky made no sense but keepimg him after being provem not to be "thr great hockey mind" he was played up to be is unacceptable.

It took SJ one season to notice Rocky has no idea why he's doing.

There’s nothing here. He’s talking up one of the team’s leaders & giving Coots credit for being a warrior. If it was something potentially serious, I’m sure he’d be sitting.

Torts may also be taking a thinly veiled shot at Hart for missing so many games with a mystery illness… idk.

Could be Cates too.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

Could be Cates too.

Could be every single kid too.

You have a tummy ache? Think twice about missing a game you p***y.

Maybe Rocky fights Torts Horses? I mean the man needs someone who is able to put the Horses in their places!

I know we tend to trash the guy but this was a great read.

[Beef Invictus]

Just another in the long line of Flyers management figures who refuse to ice the best roster they can.

He's constantly failing at the basic task of a coach: maximizing your chance of winning

 

[Curufinwe]

A coach never deserved an SOL more than tonight.

A coach never deserved an SOL more than tonight.

Definitely SOL.

Anyone else remember when torts was hired and admitted in that John Clark interview that he didn’t understand modern day offense and that he needs to hire an assistant coach who is an offensive guru…

…and then proceeded to hire Rocky Thompson
