Tortorella is a joke.

Watch John Tortorella’s (brief) post-game press conference | ProHockeyTalk

does he only show up to not get fined.

he even shoots down Stan Fischler in a question. its embarrassing to the NHL. Every other coach makes a good effort to talk about the game but Torts is apparently immune from marketing the game/series

 

[dash]

I think Torts press conference was longer than Gaborik's ice time in the 3rd period last night...

bazingggg

Torts is a tool. NHL should fine him for being a jackass. Just answer the questions with something and show some respect back to others. I would ask him so John Why did Gaborik only play like 2 secs in the 3rd...He would reply " I will keep it in the room" at which I would say John I would prefer if you just told me to fuck off you ignorant, arrogant polesmoker.

You are the head coach of the team that plays in the biggest market in North America, your team is in the ECF, you need to help promote the sport. Talking to the press comes with the job when you are a high profile figure in the media capital of the world.

 

[TiLoBrown]

I honestly surprised he disrespected Stan like that, you figure if anyone would be immune it would be him

 

[CalamityX11]

Has Tortz been this much of a jackass during the Sens/Caps series?

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

Has Tortz been this much of a jackass during the Sens/Caps series?

His entire coaching career pretty much.

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

The thing with Torts of course is nobody in the media knows as much about hockey as he thinks he does, so any one that steps out of line shall be corrected.

 

[RangersReds03]

And whatever you do, don't let your phone go off during his press conference.

lol, was that a reporter or Torts?

 

[DevilishWon]

Posted this before but maybe the rag$ "looking tired" the commentators keep talking about is the players getting tired of torts. I'll "keep it in the room" rings pretty hollow after the TV audience has seen him chew their asses for the umpteenth time after any mistake.

 

[Ho_Brah]

GO DEVILS

Ha... yeah, that's pretty unprofessional. Turn your damn phone off.

Some angles, I see Henry Wrinkle in him.
