[Spiegel] A fiery Flyers coach John Tortorella before a question asked: “Yeah, let me start. One thing I teach my team to do is not dive. Maybe I should start teaching them that, the way this has gone here, the way this shit goes on, maybe I should start teaching them how to dive.”

Gotta love Torts.
Go off
Shot across the bow!!!
My king
I was trying to make the post on r/hockey but reddit being dumb but watever.
I’m sure this would go over well after everyone thinks michkov dove on the trip before mcavoy attacked him.
That was disgraceful to watch & then they didn’t call the trip on Seeler.
Seriously need to investigate those refs.
Bruins fans are going to go nuclear with Torts pointing out their hypocrisy.
My man
Rarely does a coach reflect the personality of a city as much as Tortorella does.
I’m generally not one for trashing the officials after a game, but this is 110% warranted. That was fucking bush league from Boston
Hell yeah Torts 🫡
2 on 2 forward with puck spears the defenseman in front of him in the balls. D goes down. Forward goes around and goal is scored. How did ref miss this?
Leafs fan here. The Bruins have been basically penalty baiting for years now. Them Tampa and Florida are ridiculous with it, you guys lucky you don’t to play them as much lol (Edmonton is also brutal too tho).
Tell em king
Torts is basically a hockey fan who unlike most fans actually knows enough to coach
But what’s the excuse for not putting tk and Michkov out in OT
I wish they would start calling unsportsmanlike for diving. I never see it. It’s becoming more like WWE.
Spicy Torts.
If you’re a good coach you teach your team how to win. Hockey has gotten soft the past decade, either you’re ahead of the curve or behind it. Every good team in the league right now is great at drawing penalties. The Flyers are not good and this game really showed who Konecny, Tippett, Zamula, and Farabee are, the nails and not the hammer. Clear as day…
Good. Do it. If the refs want hockey to become soccer, so be it.
