Okay the vibes are so back
Fuck crossing broad
and the loser Anthony SanFilippo’s tweet reacting to getting unloaded on: https://x.com/antsanphilly/status/1745285753599414553?s=46&t=164cLlee5cMuZNNoG4BMJQ
I’m just getting a spinning wheel of loading. Anyone got a different source?
I assume that the Snow the Goalie crew will somehow blame this on Broad Street Hockey.
Absolutely love Torts. Keeps it real constantly. I was really torn when we hired him but he’s exactly what we need as an organization and I really hope that he can grow with this team.
This still won’t stop some losers from blindly blaming Hayes
lol love this. I hope Snow the Goalie caught this on whatever potato they use for post game interviews.
Torts is the man.
all for torts doing this. it is just insane how irresponsible media has become over time.
This all could be a PR masterclass. Org leaks to blogger/podcaster a belief that former player who had well publicized fued with Torts and was close to Gauthier was behind this. Riles up the fan base against both former player and prospect. Coach who was considered an issue stands up for former player by calling out reporter making him look like a coach that backs his guys and only a real malcontent would have problems with.
This was a real mistake on Ant’s end. When he accuses a player of meddling in something like this, something that as I understand it is not allowed by the CBA and could even kick off an investigation by the NHL, the burden is really on him to provide evidence for what anyone else can only prove is a hunch. He claims he has a source and he probably does, but until you can provide any evidence (preferably without outing said source), just keep your mouth shut. Hayes has too much plausible deniability here.
So we shouldn’t expect to see Torts on STG in the near future?
Where’s u/Narrow_Book_42069
Yeah bro good call on your hayes take. Take is as edgy as your name
Torts man, I love his no nonsense attitude.
Fuck it build the statue now
Philadelphia media and fans going after Hayes is not a good look. He is an extremely well respected veteran in the league.
I love Torts.
Wonder if this will make the team reconsider their affiliation with their program.
Kevin Hayes would not have gotten death threats if Cutter Gauthier would have simply stated his reason for refusing to sign with the Flyers. It’s the lack of explanation and the ghosting of the Flyers that’s pissing people off the most. I hope Gauthier realizes there will be rampant speculation about his reason until he discloses what it actually is, and that any collateral damage from his continued silence will be 100% his fault. He and his family/agent are being incredibly stupid about all of this.
Ok well, I can admit when I’m wrong. I don’t think Torts would’ve come out and said Hayes did it if Hayes did it, he just wouldn’t have entertained it. But Torts defended him.
