I don't know what he saw that put him in such a foul mood. The boys played a decent game against one of the best teams in the league and beat them handily. Ersson was strong in the net and they did it all with 11F & 7D not usually a recipe for success.
John Tortorella: "hyperinflation is occurring, don't really care about anything, oh we won the game? My money is worthless so this how much i care about answering your questions"
I have been checking in on the day to day interactions with Torts from another NHL market. I feel like he always responds respectfully to well thought out questions and forces the local beat reporters to do their jobs better. Then I see something like this that plays to his reputation as bring a constant hard ass. Clearly he was unhappy with how the Flyers closed out the game. Why not articulate it respectfully?
i dont understand why everyone is mad at torts for this i think he is allowed to be mad at a presser every once in a while lmao its funny and im sure he is tired of being asked the same questions every other day
I love when Torts gives it to the media like this. Imagine having a shit day at work and people crowding around you and examining every facet of what went well or wrong and who is under performing? People expect him to be consistently jolly but that's not who they hired. He's emotional and fired up. I love it.
I suspect he received some very bad news unrelated to the game, before the presser or something. I've followed Torts since he was in Rangers, watched pretty much every presser and this is not usual Torts after a win. Something has happened that he wasn't able or allowed or willing to talk there and then.
This was a panic hire by a desperate cliff fletcher jr. and I can’t imagine any worthwhile free agent wanting to come here while this guy is coaching the team…a leader is supposed to be a reliable, consistent guide-stone and this guy is all over the place…the psychological nonsense and trashing guys in public has a short shelf life and it never works with veteran players…it is why guys like Keenan and Hitchcock bounced around the league…yeah, he won a Cup with a loaded Tampa Bay team…Terry Crisp won a Cup also and I can’t remember too many people comparing him to Scotty Bowman…
I dont get this guy at all. His pregame interview was one of the best I have seen from him. Then the Flyers win & he acts like team is on 10 game losing. I am seriously concerned with his mental stability.

He sounds like he's answering questions on a registration sheet at a Doctor's office or something 😂

Love Torts … but this is not acceptable.

Nick Sirianni should handle Hurts the same way as Torts handles Konecny, instead of calling him the Michael Jordan of football.. Keep him grounded
I like Torts but what was that?
Torts being a large 🍆! 😂😂😂

Now that's a Torts presser!! We need more of these, John. Lov it
Sometimes i think he deliberately put his underwear on backwards
What the hell is this guy's problem? What other Travis would he be asking about? Great coach, but horrible to people just asking honest questions.
Equipment manager should have done this presser
Tors is always annoyed or pissed no matter if they loosing or winning
"I DON'T KNOW"

I thought they won the game?!
