Hockeytown0001 7,652 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 Fire this CLOWN, his players hate him and wont play for his BS.... @imseanavery is #winning Starting to think he's right. The Rangers have been terrible this year and its due in large part to Tortorella's system. 1 hillbillywingsfan reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Red Crazy 201 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 Avery calling somebody a clown? Coming from a guy that blew his NHL career because he couldnt keep his mouth shut........... There has been something wrong in NYR for a long time. Its not all Torts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Resetti 44 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 I've suspected that the Rangers players have been tuning out Tortorella for a while. He's not a bad coach, he has a lot of hockey sense, but he is such an abrasive personality that it's only a matter of time before he wears thin. Still, Avery calling anybody a clown is rich.

MabusIncarnate 5,344 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 Tortorella saw Avery for what he was, pushed him out of the lineup constantly and ultimately treated him like a non-NHL caliber player, not shocked at all that Avery has sour feelings honestly, regardless if the comments are true or not. Something is going wrong in New York, they have a skilled team that right now is struggling to hang onto a low seed playoff spot. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frankgrimes 1,836 Report post Posted March 31, 2013 Hardnosed and stubborn coaches are having a very short stint and Torts is the best example of a coach demanding too much and being stubborn. Read a poll where players stated him and Wilson would be the last coaches they'd be willing to play for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
