John Tortorella (Jokingly) Calls Reporter An Asshole
At today's Canucks post-mortem press conference, TSN's Farhan Lalji got things started off on the right foot by calling coach John Tortorella "Mike." Torts then bestowed Lalji with his own pet name.
Tortorella was in good spirits, and recognized that a rebuild might not include him:
"We have to stop talking about 2011. The team needs to be re-tooled. And that's what change is. It is a young man's game.
"It's not for me because I may not be here," he said of the changes. "But for the team … it doesn't happen overnight."
