I don’t think so. Maybe someone will pick up and carry the torch now, though.

No, he needs to be a hybrid of Lidstrom, Pronger, and Orr immediately or he's a complete bum.

Good win. Frost was great this game.
- Hextall271


Yes, Frosty looked great and was all over the place. He didn't block any shots so hopefully Torts won't bench him!

Oh for 8 on the PP!! Let me coach the effing thing! Pucks and bodies to the net!! You don't have the talent to score finesse goals on the PP. Wow, do they dilly dally with the puck.

Yea, that was pathetic. I don't know much about Rocky except that he was mainly a minor league scrapper. Of course Chuckles brought him in so that explains part of the problem.

He looks like a different hockey player now. I am really liking this newfound aggression that he has to his game now.

He almost had s goal there with 1:44 to go, too. I've heard his name on the broadcasr all night and for good reasons

You can thank torts for making him uncomfortable

You can "thank" Torts for this not happening sooner in B2B years by yo-yoing the player into ill-suited spots in the lineup (late Oct to late Nov 2022), moving the goalposts repeatedly, and for 11 scratches this season when there were others who deserved far more to be scratched.

The credit goes to the player.

There are plenty of things Tortorella gets right. This isn't one. No coach ever -- not even the truly elite coaches like Bowman, Shero, Sinden -- was always right. Tortorella is a good coach for implementing structure. He's a good coach for defining the team identity he wants. On the flip side, he's historically been a poor handler of players such as Mats Zuccarello and Frost.

The reality: Torts has been itching for two seasons to pull the plug on Frost. Was ready to do it by November last season and hockey ops overruled it in that case. Danny Briere is the one who believes in the player and is the reason the Flyers didn't just ditch Frost for peanuts.
