Philadelphia coach John Tortorella reluctantly left the bench [https://twitter.com/ballylightning/status/1766625685026525275?s=61&t=9pp7XIs0RmuX6Pu3uceB6g] Saturday night after receiving a game misconduct and bench minor early in the Flyers’ 7-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning. On a night that the 2004 Stanley Cup-winning Lightning team that Tortorella coached was honored, he lasted just 10:49 into the game before receiving the penalties right after Philadelphia fell behind 4-0.

What an angry man.

I’ve never been a fan of Torts either, always seem to be on player bashing mode, punitive trainings etc.

I guess GMs see something that we don’t if he keeps getting jobs around the league.

At least two terrible calls by the refs though. They decided the game.
