@@jeffreydean5112Absolutely, Torts is not a media guy. It's funny how the media say whatever they want; oftentimes being critical like somehow they know better. Whenever Torts gives it back... it ruffles the media's feathers. They are so sensitive, especially up here in Canada. (Toronto specifically).
Kolosov looked sharp yesterday to be fair. Think he was misguided a bit which unfortunately made him miss important days at camp. Torts being the no-nonsense guy he is, not surprised that he doesn’t want to focus on him at the moment.
He's right about Drysdale. His skating looks great but he's been turning over the puck in the D zone and often on the rush he holds onto the puck and skates himself into a bad position. Provorov was doing that also at the end of his tenure here.
Tough decisions to make can only carry 23 guys. 2 goalies prolly 7 d ... Ginning has looked good. I'm not sure why we signed Johnson. We have plenty of veteran presence in the locker room So thats 9 guys! If Lysel and Jett make the team some 1 that was penciled in has to go cause Michkov is in obviously! Can't let go of Dlow we need a goon just in case! Should be interesting!!
Simple 1- it allows him to evaluate players in a game situation and not miss things that he would be on the bench. 2- it allows him to evaluate his coaches while they're managing the game.
I don't give a shit what people think

Torts let it rip in this one
You could tell he was in an ornery mood before he said a word.

Brutal quote on Drysdale, hope that doesn't get anyone's feathers ruffled.

Oh calm down
Not brutal at all, he's said the same things multiple times before
@oL5re9re55ion hes also setting the table to scratch him and insert Johnson in line up !!
Johnson is Torts idea just like Staal last year!

Damn as a Ranger fan I can say that I am excited for the Flyers season. Love when Torts being brutally honest here, very entertaining and thoughtful.
He's already taking it out on the microphone and the season hasn't started yet
Fire Torts
It's kinda weird that he isn't coaching in the preseason. Is he just collecting checks at this point?
Its not weird, if you actually follow flyers you would know the reason😁
@Andyyy48 what's the reason hot shot mostl other nhl coaches behind bench.
Hes the coach not the gm!
This is common for Torts.
He does it every year (observes from above).
@@daltonducketthe wants to watch from above and he said that in previous interviews is what the guy was talking about
Simple
