Cam York Breaks the Silence After Rift That Led to John Tortorella's Firing Leaks Publicly

The last 48 hours have been filled with drama in Philadelphia, with Head Coach John Tortorella being moved on, reportedly following an incident involving defenseman Cam York, who was given no playing time in their latest game on Thursday, with interim coach Brad Shaw categorizing that as a disciplinary measure.

Now, while York didn't go into details on what happened, he has addressed the entire situation, stating that it's been handled in the locker room and that he's focused on the remaining schedule in Philly.

Again, the speculation involves a potential physical altercation, but York wouldn't get into that, instead he simply gave a glowing review of Tortorella as a coach, harping on the lessons that the veteran coach taught him during his time in Philadelphia.

As of right now, there's no detailed description of what happened, but York now finds himself in plenty of trade speculation, although the 24-year old blue liner reiterates that he wants to remain in Philadelphia moving forward.

Ultimately, York didn't give us anything more on the situation, but he addressed it head on, taking accountability for whatever happened between he and Tortorella, and now, he's looking to move on as a key part of the Flyers locker room and wants to remain there for a long time to come.
