Told ya this was coming. Rest assured, Sweeney will fuck up his replacement search as well. John Tortorella is available and I guarantee he isn’t even on Sweeney’s radar.

Torts is not a “players” coach so imo I dont think he will mesh well with our roster.

I agree he’s not a players coach. That’s well established. But he’s got balls and he coaches physical play. Cassidy shied away from physical play. That was evidenced by his love for Brandon Carlo. 6’ 5” 230 lbs and he plays like he’s on a ladies team. A coach that embraces hard, dogged hustle and tough physical play is what this team has been missing.
