Am I the only one that finds a hockey post authored by JMc to be a bit jarring? Is this normal?

In any sport. He’s the greatest.

So Tortorella is what Belichick would be if Belichick actually opened up to the press?

He still has a way to go to catch Pop.

Well, yeah. Now that you mention it, Popovich rules the postgame press conference. He can switch from insightful to acerbic in an instant.

What did the Isles eat for breakfast yesterday. Is Scrivens that bad of a net minder?

Didn’t see the game, but I think the Isles have some really good young forwards. Moulson and Grabner are pretty good and I think Tavares is going to be a perennial all-star.

“John, why did you send out Aaron Asham as a starter?”

That’s a question that he should have a short answer to because there isn’t a good one.

Although many talked a tough game about boycotting hockey they all flocked back to it like a newfie clubber to a wounded baby seal.

Tortorella’s curt, angry postgame press conferences were the highlight of the 2012 NHL playoffs.Or, you know, the actual games

When most questions these days start with “talk about…” wouldn’t you get pissed off, too? Man, J-schools should get with the program and start offering courses on how to ask a question.

Torts, already in postseason form.

Correct, the Rangers did in fact lose.

John Tortorella to Reporter: “That’s just a stupid question. That’s a dumb question.”

In his defense, most questions reporters ask ARE stupid questions.

Need more Tortorellas in sports. He’s the best.

He still has a way to go to catch Pop.

Rangers looked gassed last night. They will now win 10 in a row to spite that previous statement.

This dude slays me. If I ever start watching hockey, it’ll be for the sole reason of hearing this dude dominate reporters.
