Hate to admit when LAS makes a correct point , but man enough to acknowledge. Was listening to Bruce Boudreaux on SXM regarding head coaches being hired in and what happens with assistant coaches. In his experience, head coaches usually get to bring in one guy. GM’s typically dictate remaining staff, including hires / fires during coaching term. Get this - the only GM that gave him free rein (within reason) was What The F&$k Chuck while in Minnesota.

With Keefe's firing today Torts is up to the 7th most tenured head coach in the league

And Cassidy only beats him for 6th by 3 days.

Why do you hate to admit when I'm right?

I think he's my number 1 now that it seems like he may be available in the Flyers range. Him or Yakemchuk. Seems like the Flyers are kind of expecting a dman to be the play this year, C next year though.

Just trying to keep your ego in check.

Torts redeems himself with a phone call to Laughton after the debacle earlier in the season.

Why Laughton appreciated this phone call from Tortorella

As the NHL trade rumors started this season, Flyers alternate captain Scott Laughton appreciated the phone call he received from head coach John Tortorella.
