John Tortorella Admits One Specific Player Bothers Him
Ivan Provorov of the Philadelphia Flyers left fans concerned after getting boarded during a game and appearing to suffer a serious injury. However, the determined defenseman showed his grit by returning to the bench and ultimately rejoining the game. Despite struggling to skate, Provorov refused to let the injury get the best of him and fought through the pain to continue playing. This type of resilience and determination is what sets elite athletes apart from the rest.
Torts said in his post-game presser that Provorov can be frustrating at times though:
John Tortorella on Ivan Provorov:
"He doesn't stay down. He's frustrating me at times, but how he handles himself. There aren't too many players that go about it that way."
