PHILADELPHIE (AP) – The head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers, John Tortorella, lashed out at a journalist during his post-game press conference on Wednesday evening, questioning information about prospect Cutter Gauthier’s trade on Monday.
Gauthier told Flyers general manager Danny Briere that he did not want to play in Philadelphia or for the Flyers. Unable to sign Gauthier, Philadelphia traded the Boston College standout to Anaheim on Monday for defenseman Jamie Drysdale.
On Monday, a journalist from a team-affiliated podcast stated, citing a source within the Flyers organization, that former Flyers forward Kevin Hayes “had his fingerprints all over this.” affair”. Hayes, a former Boston College player, now plays in St. Louis.
Tortorella disputed this information after Philadelphia’s 3-2 win over Montreal on Wednesday evening.
“Is the guy who caused a problem for Kevin Hayes here?” Tortorella asked.
“Yes,” he replied.
“Are you kidding me? Do you think Kevin Hayes is going to do something like that?…» Tortorella said. “It’s just that it annoys me that you throw things like that and affect someone’s life. Kevin Hayes and I had a problem and we couldn’t agree on how to play. ”
“He’s a good man. He’s a good man. What you said will stay with him. That’s what you don’t understand. You’re going to sit there and say you have the right sources. …”
Tortorella then spoke of a “stupid podcast”.
The coach praised Drysdale, who got an assist and played well in his first game with the Flyers.
“I was impressed by how he handled himself,” he said.
