This is why he is my favorite NHL coach.....................
Because he spews BS? Or because he's so ruggedly handsome?

Yep, awesome coach. When I was in NYC a few years back and caught the Jackets game there, he called a TO after falling down 0-2 and you can tell he wasn't going to take anymore loafing, Rangers ended up winning 7-4
It took many proud Italians over 100 years to convince the rest of America that they're not all a bunch of high-strung, overly emotional crybabies.
John Tortorella does more to damage that progress on a daily basis than every pizza commercial and mobster movie ever made.
Heh.
I like Tortorella. He amuses me. I like that he's in the league.
But on no account do I ever want him coaching a team I support.

Thanks, Howson, for cleaning up MacLean's toxic waste. Welcome, Kekalainen; let's get good things built!
Rangers are my Eastern Conference fav, but I have to tune Torts out. He is the A in ahole.

I'd have more respect if you just came out and said "I've always hated the Pens, so I love that my boy Torts is calling them out. Even if I'm not going to both to form my own opinion about what he's saying."
When Executive Vice President and Chief Sales Officer Chris Parker went on 102.5 The Game’s First Quarter show Tuesday morning, he unveiled an exciting marketing plan in an effort to further their “Keep the Red Out” campaign.
“We want to start motivating people to go gold,” Parker said. “We know there are a lot of Red Wings fans who have migrated to the area. We want to convert those people. Starting today, if you’re a Red Wings fan and you’re ready to really commit to the Predators… we will give you 50% off a Predators jersey if you exchange your Red Wings jersey.”
Add a ceremonial burning of the old jerseys - perhaps in that park between the Country Music Hall Of Fame and the arena - and the level of True Badass Awesome would go through the roof.

Indeed. I believe they're actually laundering them and donating them to Detroit-area charities, which is cool. (Unless you're some kid served by a Detroit-area charity who gets one of those horrid things.)

I will concede that that is very nearly as awesome as my suggestion.
