Saddling Frost with 5th liners was dumbfounded. Especially since Couturier and Laughton have done nothing. Laughton coming back down to earth as he has no motivation since the deadline past. He played just well enough, for just long enough...

Sounds like Torts refusing to leave the bench is going to be not taken kindly to by the league. I think it’s possible he gets suspended.


he just wanted to talk to the referees about what their reasoning was. seems...defensible?

I thought it was interesting that as soon as Torts was kicked out, Frost played with Tippett and Farabee (for the most part).

Ok.
So from a man who holds others to the highest levels accountability (obsessively and incorrectly so), how will Torts be held accountable for his numerous mistakes? The bench minor and the embarrassing theatrics he acted out on live television were quite a terrible representation of the culture and attitude the Flyers are trying to cultivate.

I realize some players are probably dicks, but the vast majority probably decent people. I say this because all things being equal, what players really want on the ice with them are players who can do the job. I guarantee no player thinks "Staals out with me, we are going to get scored on, but thats ok, he's a great guy...." It sucks the life out of you as a player.

He’s probably not even a great guy.

Say what you want about Tortorella, but he's one of the few people left in this league with some personality. Will be a sad day when he retires, ngl.
