Although DeAngelo expressed his dislike of being the odd man out recently, he went on to respect Tortorella's decision to scratch him.
«My whole life I wanted to be a Flyer, and now that I am, I don't take it for granted at all. It's something that means a lot to me, so I'm not going to let any relationship stuff get in the way. He's the coach of the team, so you've got to respect it, and I respect what he does.
«Do I agree with it and what happened the last five games? Absolutely not,» he added. «I think it's ridiculous that I didn't play the last five. That's one thing. But he's also the coach, and it's not my job to decide that.»
