yes its me 2050Participantif you took a big picture/long term approach you would understand why.
Thanks for the non-answer. How will the ghost of Torts impact Zegras this year? As far as long term goes, do you think Martone will be damaged by Torts’ ghost?
it isnt a non-answer. your just dumb.
its not about the players he coached. overall organization wide it set them back a lot.you really are a fucking dope. you have no common sense or smarts. can’t even buy a clue.

yes its me 2050Participantit is not irrelevant. not sure how one can say otherwise.
How is it relevant? Are players not getting enough sleep because they’re waking up from nightmares of Torts demanding they block shots?

yes its me 2050Participantdid hiring torts set this franchise back? yes or no.
I only watched last year and saw a bad team with quite a few good players. How is that possible with a coach in his third year if he’s not an issue? I would say yes but all that is irrelevant going forward.

yes its me 2050ParticipantIt would be nice if you would add to the conversation instead of just trolling but you are what you are I guess.
Still Terry became an important part of Flyers history lest we forget, who, like Torts, was hired by clueless executives to return the Flyers to glory after missing the playoffs. Jay Snider was in charge while Russ Farwell was GM and Terry brought them all down. A real murderers row of executives. Terry’s failure in his lone year as coach caused Ed Snider to take back the team presidency from Jay and Russ’s final act before he himself was fired was to fire Terry.
There might be a lesson there but seriously the coach/co-GM who was just let go only a few months ago is extremely relevant to the current players and make up of the current front office.
Pot? Meet kettle. Actually, Farwell did some good things during his tenure. He fixed the drafting, despite the Jagr pass, traded for Brind’Amour and Lindros, despite the Forsberg inclusion. Torts is not extremely relevant to the current players. These guys are focused on right now. Perhaps a handful are still traumatized about a bad coach they had in pee-wees.

yes its me 2050Participantwere danny boy and “jones” forced to fire torts? if so by whom I wonder. clearly, he had to go though danny has said numerous times he wanted him back.
hiring torts set this franchise back many years. either danny didn’t have the balls to fire him when he was named GM to go in his own direction or he wasn’t allowed. Either way it is terrible outcome.
Why is Jones in quotes here? Are you saying that it might not really be his name?
should have been “jonesy”
