Phillygrump Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 If ruff or torts were hired by the Flyers that might push my overboard. No way with either torts or ruff.Torts is an ass but he's a good coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojo1917 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Torts is an ass but he's a good coach.I'd like to see him ride roughshod over Carchidi and his buddies...but, the window to win with Torts is finite, the team will play a tougher style more defensively oriented, but after year 4 if you haven't won the championship , guys will start tuning him out .. We will trade good players for more "Torts type". Giroux 's prime will be essentially wasted . If a team is unlucky the way the Rangers have been and don't win...well you see what's happening with NYR now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laviolette is the first coach since Shero to go more than four years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torts adapts to his personnel. The stars in TB did just fine under him.Torts would be good if only to put the media in their place. And to drive Bayer stock higher than Google.

jammer2 Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I consider Miller pretty close to Lehtinen on the Stars, good goalie, but outside of the elite goalies of the league, they are both somewhere around 8 to 12 range league wide. Buffalo will want a kings randsom for this guy, and they will get it, but (at least IMHO) not worth ripping your roster apart, which is what the winning bidder will have to do to secure his services.....pass.
