Rangers Coach All Talk So Far

John Tortorella, what are you thinking? Is this series about you making an ass of yourself in front of the national media? There is a simple coaching axiom that says praise in public, scold in private. I guess John got the 2 confused. Why call out a player on your team & say he stinks? What greater good does that serve? Why swear at a reporter asking a simple question? There has to be a better way for Tortorella to motivate his team. His methods aren't working - obviously - since the Bruins are up 3 to zip. If you are going to lose, try to do it with some class. John is good theatre on TV & good for a sound bite, but he is not helping his team. Isn't that what a coach is suppose to do?
