Tortorella was penalized by the NHL for his outburst Saturday night during a 7-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Flyers coach John Tortorella with right wing Garnet Hathaway during the game against the New York Rangers on Feb. 24.John Tortorella has been suspended two games and fined $50,000 for his antics during the Flyers’ 7-0 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Saturday night.
Long known to be a fiery, unpredictable, ready-to-burst coach, Tortorella went off with colorful language and less colorful hand gestures toward the referees after the Lightning made it 4-0. The goal wasn’t the issue for Tortorella. The issue was the penalty that was called, allowing the home team to score on a power play. It was one of a few questionable calls.Ronnie Attard was called for his second penalty of the night.
During the Lightning power play, Garnet Hathaway was issued a 10-minute misconduct after he gave Anthony Cirelli a shove on the way to a defensive-zone faceoff. Definitely not something you see every day. Even from the press box, one could see Tortorella starting to boil. The fine and suspension are just the latest for the guy some have said has mellowed after more than 30 years of coaching. The 65-year-old coach has now been fined 13 times and suspended four.
