    Anyone else here dislike John Tortorella?

    Guy is constantly complaining about every call that goes against the Rangers and is always seen crying like a baby on the bench.

    Not to mention the guy is a complete prick to everyone around him.

    Guy doesnt look too happy now with his Rangers down 2-0. Guess its time to complain some more...

    Complains a lot, takes shots at other teams, often lies.

    Not a likable guy.

    He's arrogant as hell but that makes him very entertaining. When he goes off he really goes off. Probably love the candor if you're a NYR fan and hate the guy if he's mouthing off about your team in some regard.

    Bob Mckenzie told a great Torts story on TSN radio this year. Tortorella was an analyst for TSN NHL games awhile back and whenever he saw a player complaining about something or other he used to tell Bob that said player "needs to just stfu and play".
    So this year when the Rangers' owner held a press conference and made some remarks about the team looking good for a run at the Cup, Torts was visibly frustrated and Bob said he was probably thinking "this guy needs to just stfu and own".
