The stage for the entertainment is the success of the team. If he keeps throwing hussy fits and the team loses, it's over Johnny.

The fans might be bad. They are not that bad.

Success is relative. The success I'm looking for is not the same success Comcast is happy with

I'm here every day PT. You're free at any time to confront me and prove me wrong. You haven't been able to do it so far. Nothing I need to be concerned about.

I reluctantly agree.

Slowly but surely, you'll inch your way towards turning your back on your hero. Then act like you knew it all along. Just like you did with Fletcher.

Wow, I'm impressed. You actually shared your opinion. In the end I don't disagree, but as I posted earlier I think Farabee is at the top of the list.

Yea, I never share my opinion.

Well, we will see.

I give you props about Frost though. I have watched a few games recently. Kid's a player. There is a lot there. I am pleasantly surprised at the potential. And you were the earliest poster here who would sing his praises.

hasta la proxima ....

Cap score to make it 3-2 on the PP. Buffalo looks good though.

He has shown flashes in the last month or so that haven’t seen much of prior to that. Not things I didn’t think he was capable of necessarily, but I feel he’s been showing them more often. I think he’s gaining confidence with the puck. Interested to see how he looks next year.

I am going to be pretty annoyed if the flyers don’t get in at this point. If they don’t, fine, better draft pick and lottery potential. But can’t they overachieve for a few more weeks??

There was a god
An underwater god who controlled the sea
Got killed by ten million pounds of sludge
From New York and New Jersey

This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven

The creature in the sky
Got sucked in a hole
Now there's a hole in the sky
And the ground's not cold
And if the ground's not cold
Everything is gonna burn
We'll all take turns, I'll get mine too

This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven
This monkey's gone to Heaven

Rock me, Joe

If Man is five, if Man is five, if Man is five
Then the Devil is six, then the Devil is six
Then the Devil is six, the Devil is six
And if the Devil is six Then God is seven, then God is seven, then God is seven

Nah, Torts was brought in to win back and entertain the fans. His post-game pressers after losses are must see TV. His meltdowns drive a ton of engagement on social media. Comcast couldn't be happier with him.

Wins/playoffs are just gravy.

You win the comment of the day award! I mean, WTF would be talked about on here all day long if Torts wasn't around? This place would be a ghost town with tumble weeds rollin on through.

Usually need around 95 points to get in. This year a team under 90 probably gets in. What a poop conference

After two periods.
All teams are not perfect, just like the Flyers.

The forum went on long before Tortorella arrived and will long after he is gone.

I think there's even more potential there but he won't ever realize it here.

For his sake I hope he gets traded in the summer.

No $hit Sherlock, but the number of comments per day would be greatly diminished which was my point. Yeah, I know. You have to dispute every comment that is made on here King Tut!
