Torts didn't return the flavour in his scrum today:
“@FarhanLaljiTSN: Torts on Flames hallway incident, "I was going down there to get him (Hartley) and I would have"”

I wonder if they trade his rights, for a late late late pick.

Torts is a real blow hard. It's especially ironic considering the lack of respect his players generally demonstrate toward their peers.

Hahaha. Would have loved to see him try. Tortorella is the size of Johnny Gaudreau.

Am I the only one who thinks this guy needs to be in a straitjacket?

He would have had to make it past McGrattan first. Good luck!

Torts should probably be worried about his own team...was hired because the team couldnt win in the playoffs under the last coach. Under him they are now the 6th worst team in the NHL

Tortarella making it all about himself, trying to justify his ridiculous words and actions. Hartley all about the team and praising anyone and everyone for all the hard works and an outstanding year. Which coach would you rather have.

I love how he just publicly admitted to being an unprofessional, immature jacka** who, though i doubt he realizes it even now, makes the entire sport look bad. If i were the Canucks ownership group(and or Linden) i would fire him right away. Those comments not only embarrass the sport but the Canucks organization, and tortz himself (though he is too pissed at Hartley to see it). Nut they won't cause the Canucks are no good.

He has McGrattan to thank for stopping Clint Malarchuk from breaking him in halfway during the hallway incident.

That's pretty discouraging... I understand that he's angry, but he's also a professional representative of the sport and a potential role model to kids.
I like that Hartley isn't addressing it and is focusing on the team, although Hartley definitely played a part in antagonizing him, he seems to be more professional about it in the media.

The Flames website has uploaded all of the players' media scrums from today:
http://flames.nhl.com/club/podcast.htm?pid=35
A lot of focus on culture change in the dressing room this season. It seems like all of the non-rookie or first year Flames mentioned it.

Torts used to be the master of smoke and mirror diversion tactics, but I don't think his latest spats have the same effect
