Brian McGrattan asked coach Hartley if he wanted him to have a word with coach Tortorella but he said no thanks Brian, have a good summer.

Yeah, I guess he doesn't like having what he wears be dictated by someone else's old-fashioned ideas about what is appropriate.

The Vancouver Canucks, who missed the Stanley Cup playoffs by a million skillion points this year, still did the best work of any team in the NHL.

Torts either knows he is toast, and was trying to deflect that, or he's a hot head beyond all reasonable belief.

With Gillis gone, he had a good chance to "plead" for his job, by praising linden, the Sedins. Maybe talk about Jensen. Kiss kesslers ass a little. Praise eddy lack.

But no. Deflect, deflect, deflect, deflect.

Did he even answer a question about Luongo? If not, it's not just short sighted by the media, but also the coach to not address the winter classic.

To spend so much time on Hartley is funny. Probably doesn't even want his job back #5yrcontract

Lindens "decision" was made for him!

Roger Millions is a clown. Hartley says several times at thd beginning of the video that he doesn't want to talk about Tortorella but 7 or 8 minutes later he tries to bring it up again out of the blue.

Every editor would expect their reporters to go there.

Millions should only ask approved questions?

Give me a break. Millions is a great reporter IMO and I think we're lucky to have him

Lord knows I'm not a fan of bringing a balloon shaped like a dead horse to a porcupine party when the porcupines are all carrying baseball bats, but he wouldn't be much of a reporter if he didn't ask the questions.

Yeah, it's his job to ask, no real problem with it. Taking posts from CP and reporting them as news with "several reports" is another story.

Millions: Tomorrow can I talk to you about it?
Hartley: You can call me. Maybe Valentines day would be a better day. Huh? Huh? Huh?

Loved that bit.

So great in fact, that he will undoubtedly be tweeting your comment soon and crediting his 'sources' with the inside scoop

Torts is an asshat to be sure, but flat out making stuff up that looks like a quote reflects very poorly on this forum and its members. The guy said enough real stupid crap to hang himself. There is no need to get creative here.

I like it...and yes, I get the joke.

But the actual answer is he hates wearing ties, but appreciates and understands that at times he has to, so throws it around his neck like that so it is close by for when he has to wear one, and then actually does it up.
