John Tortorella has long been known as one of the toughest, old-school coaches in the entire NHL, but has this latest video shown him taking that way too far?

During the Flyers latest game, footage was captured of Tortorella berating 22-year old Bobby Brink, with one fan on social media calling for the NHLPA to step in.

While it may look bad to some, this is simple coaching, and it's likely that most, if not all coaches in the NHL have had to do this at some point, so it may be getting blown well out of proportion.

Sure, is it good to see a coach berate a young player like this? Likely not, but this is a team that very few gave a chance at the beginning of the 2023-24 season, but with Tortorella's coaching style, they've managed to find their way into a playoff spot, so it clearly can't be all bad for the Flyers.
