Why John Tortorella Might Just Deserve Flyers Fans’ Respect Now
Of course, the 5-foot-9 Emil Andrae blossomed with the guidance of Tortorella, of all people, only to fall behind the likes of Egor Zamula, Adam Ginning, and Noah Juulsen with Tocchet in charge. And that’s almost exclusively due to his diminutive stature.
On top of that, Tortorella helped weed out underachieving talents in Morgan Frost and Joel Farabee while dealing with key losses at the trade deadline in consecutive years.
The most important part of this is Matvei Michkov, the Flyers’ franchise player who expressed on record his disappointment for seeing his first NHL coach leave after just one season of working with him.
