<3 Tortorella

 

[BritainStix]

The reffing in this game has been a f***ing abomination. Torts has every right to be mad.

Wes Macauly is a disgrace to the NHL.

 

[Your Boy Troy]

You gotta love the reaction from the former players in the press box.

 

[MXD]

On one hand, what a tool move.

On the other, he should pull a Bobby Valentine at the second period.

 

[stevo61]

Man I miss Torts. Give him back

 

[GhostfaceWu]

What an idiot. The referees might have a bit of leverage here, like playing the actual game.

Yes cause being down 4 nothing I'm sure torts cares

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

Hahaha go torts go

 

[CrazyDuck4u]

Lmao love torts

 

[Evergreen]

Two giant egos going at it. Torts vs. Wes. I actually love it.

 

[Turin]

Tort should be allowed to fight him

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Too many NHL slurpers in here with their jowls. He’s protesting, let the man cook.

 

[Caroline Says ll]

Would the refs of had the power to call the game if he had refused?

Intermission crucifixion, actually.

He’s been great. Made mistakes but good overall.

But don’t say it out loud.

Flyers board celebrating that he’s been ejected and that they’re losing badly this game.

 

[biturbo19]

Sure. When it's Glen Gulutzan he'll go marching down the halls on a f***ing mission. But now he won't do it?

 

[Schennanigans]

He ain’t leaving your leaving.

 

[Master P]

I've had enough of Wes. Guy thinks people go to the games to see him.

Never change Torts!

Yeah I can see why a fanbase would be mad at a coach for making their team massively overachieve. Hes rough on young kids which can be frustrating but you cant argue with his results.

 

[ijuka]

Good to see at least someone calling out the terrible refs

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Who doesn't love this.

Some on HFB’s love clutching their pearls, the ghost of Don Cherry still lives on.

That's his whole thing, yes. Putting on a show and getting attention.
