It’s been tough week for Philadelphia Flyers coach John Tortorella.
Throughout Tuesday’s sport in opposition to the Blue Jackets, Tortorella was sporting a large gash beneath his left eye, which was the results of an obvious horse-kicking incident.
In response to the printed, Tortorella bought kicked within the face by his horse, and believes his nostril is damaged. Tortorella, who owns three horses, has been open about his ardour for animal advocacy.
“It was a horse-kicking incident,” ESPN analyst and former Flyers goalie Brian Boucher mentioned on the printed, per phillyhockeynow.com. “…He mentioned he was awfully fortunate — it may have been quite a bit worse.”
Late within the first interval of Philadelphia’s eventual 5-4 loss to Columbus — the staff’s fourth straight defeat — the coach delivered a fiery sound chunk when Boucher requested him to judge his staff’s begin to the sport after giving up the primary objective.
“We suck,” he mentioned. “We haven’t forechecked, we haven’t performed something as of proper now.”
When requested what he wished to see in a different way out of his membership, Tortorella mentioned, “Forecheck,” earlier than ripping off his headset to wrap up the fast interview.
Tortorella is thought for talking his thoughts. Two weeks prior, the previous Rangers coach cursed off the Toronto Maple Leafs from the bench, showing to yell, “f–ok off, you motherf–ker” after a objective from Zach Aston-Reese.
The Flyers face the Bruins on Thursday.
