After last night's game between the Flyers and the Coyotes, head coach John Tortorella once again showed just how stubborn he can be.
John Tortorella Refuses to Answer Questions From a Specific Reporter After Major Controversy With Former Flyers Kevin Hayes
Back in December, when the Philadelphia Flyers traded Cutter Gauthier to the Anaheim Ducks, the reporter Anthone SanFilipo started the rumor that Kevin Hayes played a role in Gauthier's decision to refuse to play for the Flyers. Hayes received a lot of criticism, even death treats, on social media. After that backlash, he proved that SanFilipo's rumor was false and Tortorella, his former coach, completely destroyed SanFilipo in a press conference.
"Are you kidding me? You think Kevin Hayes is going to do something like that? It just pisses me off that you guys throw that around and affect someone's life. Kevin Hayes and I had a problem and we couldn't come to an agreement how to play.
That's a good man. That's a good man. And what you said is going to stay with him. That's what you guys don't understand. You're going to sit there and say you have the right sources."
That's a good man. That's a good man. And what you said is going to stay with him. That's what you guys don't understand. You're going to sit there and say you have the right sources."
Last night, a few months after the incident, Tortorella still won't answer his questions.
"I'm not answering your questions."
If this shows one thing, is that even if Tortorella isn't the most appreciated head coach in the league, he stands by his players all the way.
