John Tortorella Publicly Calls Out Joel Farabee's Agent During LIVE Interview
Yesterday on Thursday, February 23rd, reports surfaced that surprised many Philadelphia Flyers fans.
Frank Seravalli of the Daily Faceoff reported the 'displeasure' that Joel Farabee's agent is voicing, and it's quite interesting for a player who has been nearly invisible all year.
The report was as follows:
Surprise, surprise. Farabee is one of the biggest surprises to hit the board this season. Sources say Farabee's camp has voiced their displeasure to the Flyers as to how this season has unfolded under coach John Tortorella. Things came to a boil when Farabee skated just 3:52 in Calgary earlier this week. Farabee is a talented kid but has struggled this season after undergoing artificial disk replacement late in the summer, which limited his training. That prompted Tortorella to say he wasn't going to "let Farabee hide behind that," which didn't help. He's also played on the fourth line. The Flyers don't want to trade Farabee at his lowest value. There is no formal trade request made from Farabee's camp, but they're seeking answers on a solution, especially since it's clear that Tortorella isn't going anywhere.

As mentioned, it's quite interesting due to Farabee's lack of noticeability throughout the Flyers lineup, as well as nobody expected the Flyers too have a breakout year underneath John Tortorella, but reportedly Farabee's camp sure did.
Tortorella took the stand at the Flyers morning skate and was asked about Farabee's agents comments, Tortorella gave his brutally honest viewing:
«This is news to me. Is his agent popping off that he's pissed off? He should shut up.»
