“Shocking Move: Flyers Part Ways with John Tortorella as Tensions Rise Amid Disappointing Season”
“Is there one thing that happened? It’s not one thing. It’s a series of things that have happened, and probably a little bit more in the last three weeks, that has escalated since probably around the trade deadline,” Briere said.
Tortorella, who brandished his reputation as a fiery, no-nonsense coach on a team still mostly full of young 20-somethings finding their way in the NHL, went 97-107-33 for the Flyers and was fired with one year left on his contract.
The Flyers haven’t won the Stanley Cup since the last of their two straight championships in 1975. They last played in the Stanley Cup Final in 2010.
