You should be embarrassed John. The guy pretty much single-handedly sent your entire season into a tail spin with one move. In fact, you should be fired as well as embarrassed.
The Canucks were cratering well before Hartley trolled Tortorella. But the brawl and Torts' reaction likely permanently lost him the locker room. There was no recovery from that.
Boring Sean Monahan @boringmonahan8m Johnny Gaudreau scored his first goal tonight. I gave him the puck after he scored so that he wouldn't forget that he scored.
You know you've made it when you're the subject of a Boring Monahan tweet.

Not the effort I was hoping for my first Flames/Canucks game live. I even overheard some Canucks fans saying they were surprised at how flat the Flames looked compared to what they've seen on TV.
I was so zoned out after the 4th goal that I didn't even realize Gaudreau had scored until they announced it. The only thing I thought was it was about time they did something.
“@sportsnetmurph: #canucks Daniel Sedin has been released from hospital.”

Incentive for us to lose an no incentive for them to lose. But that really didn't play into it.
Hartley isn't that kind of coach and he always plays to win. The lineup was depleted without Brodie, Cammalari, etc but he showed lots of confidence in Johnny and Arnold. What other choice did he have?
Too bad about D. Sedin. Don't turn away from a hit close to the boards. Absorb that sh*t, Ikea Bro. It's really an ordinary hockey play. Take it, leaning into it and it's a routine play that happens 1000's of times a year. Instead, he Chicken Little's and turns. Even then it was shoulder to back of the shoulder. NOT on the numbers.
How can a guy lay off of that?? It was a weak call, as most of the blame should have been on Sedin. Why even go in like that? You're risking injury and know full well a guy is coming in. The cycle game is their trademark after all.
Too bad we lost in this fashion. Torts tho still seems upset. He is a whiney little bitch too.
I'd like Torts to expand on what the "stuff was going on when Sedin was hurt"? If you are going to call someone out, then call him out and explain, don't be a ##### and say something happened then not elaborate. All that does is allow him to pretend Hartley did something less than classy at that moment but not have to be accountable for explaining it or proving it. Chicken #### move.
Definetley saw that Hartley didn't like the 5 and game call, which if that's what Torts is crying about then he needs to give his head a shake. He's been in this league way too long to be surprised that on a boarder line hit like that one that the offending player's coach would stick up for his guy.
How about going over to the opposition teams dressing room in between periods in a fit of rage to create an incident? Would that not be considered bush league?
Friggin goof.

Torts has got to be the biggest idiot. Calling out Hartley while saying nothing and pretending to be someone who protected his players against the goon line to start the game is so low. He's probably just mad that Hartley ended their season in January and they never recovered from that. What a loser.
Him coaching the Canucks organization go hand in hand. Embarrassing.
