The past 48 hours have been a whirlwind for the Philadelphia Flyers and head coach John Tortorella. Having to juggle games against the Pittsburgh Penguins and Montreal Canadiens while also welcoming in a brand new defenseman in Jamie Drysdale, it's safe to say Torts has had a busy week thus far.
On Tuesday after the newest Flyers defenseman Jamie Drysdale participated in his first practice as a Flyer, media members did their best to get any and all information out of Tortorella. Torts, however, gave some classic Torts soundbites as he wasn't budging with reporters.
Most of the questions were surrounding if number one, Drysdale was going to play, and number two, what the defensive pairings would be. If Travis Sanheim or Egor Zamula would be heading to the bench or if the Flyers would bring Drysdale along slowly.
"Today's practice we had eight D, trying different things. I'm not sure what the pairs are going to be. Let the kid play, please. Then ask me questions. You're not going to get s--t out of me in a 30 minute practice so let's get going here."
Flyers fans will get to see Drysdale and the pairings Tortorella has decided tonight at 7:00p.m. EST as the Flyers welcome the Montreal Canadiens to the Wells Fargo Center.
