John Tortorella Out in Philadelphia Following Embarrassing Loss to the Toronto Maple Leafs

The Toronto Maple Leafs exposed the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night with a 7-2 victory that had John Tortorella feeling like an absolute chump.

In fact, after the game, he had some very direct comments about not being interested in coaching a team like this.

According to Elliotte Friedman, this may have cost him his job. While Friedman states the head coach stepped down, the Flyers are claiming that the head coach was fired.

This confusion just showcases that this whole divorce is quite messy and may have been a shock to the system given what we heard from Torts on Tuesday following the Leafs game.

Quite frankly, it is hard to say whether or not John Tortorella is ever going to get another job in the National Hockey League.

He has coached teams like the New York Rangers, Vancouver Canucks, and Columbus Blue Jackets with medium amounts of success.

Unfortunately, Tortorella has yet to have another campaign like 2003-04, when he won the Stanley Cup with a loaded Tampa Bay Lightning roster.

He is a polarizing head coach and there are a lot of players out there who don't exactly love his style of coaching, with that in mind, there is a real possibility that he never gets hired again.

If this is the end of the road for Tortorella, he can at least go out knowing that he reached the pinnacle of the sport, even if this last season in Philadelphia was a complete and utter debacle.
