John Tortorella, head coach of the Philadelphia Flyers, will not be behind the bench for their final game of the year. Instead, Tortorella will watch the game from the press box to gain a different perspective on his roster. This marks the fourth time this season that Tortorella has opted for this approach, which is uncommon for a coach.
By watching from a different angle, Tortorella can evaluate his team's performance and make adjustments more effectively. It also provides an opportunity for another coach to take the reins and gain valuable experience. For tonight's game, Daryl Williams will be coaching the Flyers, as Tortorella observes from the press box.
