NHL/Interviews Gone WRONG …..John Tortorella takes up half the footage . Now I’m going to be like the interviewers here by asking John the obvious . “ So John what do you think that says to the fans ? “ ….Torts answers back , “ What does what say ? “ …..” The fact you take up half this video’s footage “ ….Then Torts answers back , “ You tell me “ …..Like the interviewers here I answer back , “ I don’t know , I’m asking you “ ….Torts leaves .
Reporters ask the most stupid questions. "How does it feel to get scored on from the opposing blue line?" "How do you feel about this 50-game losing streak?" "How did you feel when you lost your entire family in that car wreck?"
Some "journalists" enjoy baiting players into exploding on them so they can omit the part where they were antagonizing said player and make them look like a loose cannon
When you see a lot of Tortorella's interviews it seems like the media is trying to provoke and bait him for a reaction. He's still articulate even when he's annoyed.
It's not just a game though once you're in the nhl. It's a job. If you're not a good team less people will buy tickets which will mean less money for the organization.
This is a John Tortorella video resume as to why he's an absolute heart on the sleeve legend. Not a bad coach but a million dollar interview and the refreshing honesty. Torts legend status
I used to get so bored with athletes answers when I was younger but the older I got the more i grew to hate the media and their baiting tactics. I truly believe there aren't many things worse than the media in the world.
Feel like athletes/coaches can never win. If they give a boring/generic answer, they're being insincere. If they give a truthful/harsh answer, well now they're being a jerk for no reason.
In the Calgary & Edmonton series the media was coming at Darryl Sutter with questions like "do you match lines" like it's a big deal. Next game you literally see Edmonton matching lines with Calgary, matter of fact the whole series's.
Same here. I think the only thing worse than the lazy media tactics are the people that somehow believe those are insightful questions. Asking players how they feel after losing in the postseason or whether they agree with a borderline call when they appeared visibly upset at the time of the call is just lazy. If most people phoned it in like the media does with those questions, we'd be unemployed. If fans can't see that, they are just as clueless as the fools asking the lazy questions.
Journalism is responsible for a free and fair society. Look no further than countries and state owned media that repress a free press for examples. Kinda why its in the first amendment… The real question: Why ask athletes what they think?
Coaches get asked some of the dumbest questions. It’s hard not to get annoyed. Interviewers just throw the line out and hope for a bite. Then they realize they are fishing in their sink instead of a lake. 😅
@@casewojo6186 that’s why Paul Maurice trolled them back with , “ Uhhh , yeah ….there’s some money on the floor over there guys , uh , now don’t everyone go diving for it at the same time “ ….Master troll back .
I would love players and coaches to start answering stupid questions with stupid questions. "hey is it frustrating to be on a 6 game losing stretch?" "do you find that when your nose is plugged that it makes it harder to breath out your nose?"
As an Islanders fan I’m in your boat on this one. I’m also jealous of the Penguins striking gold after the 2004-05 lockout and getting the first overall pick which Crosby was the top prospect that year by a country mile.
I am glad it is the era of podcasts and players having more of a voice to say what the want and not have to feed into the contrived media narratives and ‘takes’ that are required for everything that happens in sports.
It's unreal how many stupid questions reporters actually ask. "Dion, you looked angry in the box tonight, can you describe the emotion of the game?" 🙄🤦♂️

That one with Tim Thomas is pretty much what's wrong with social media. You can't be an individual everything has to be linked and tied to something they do for a living even if it doesn't correlate to anything.
That's exactly what's wrong with today's society. You can lose your whole career over your own opinion if you Wana share it. It's insane. Circus society we live in.
@@ninjanunch27 I mean...you dont talk politics or money at work. Hes in the spotlight being an athlete. Just keep you mouth shut.

@@ninjanunch27Tim Thomas would absolutely lose his career if he played today despite how great he was. That just shows you the sad state of affairs. Nothing is sacred.
because he’s so popular he’s prone to having his words twisted. it’s definitely a hard life in the media, something none of us understand but celebrities
That dude asking the reporter if he's an expert because apparently you have to be an expert to be able to determine what happened via replay. What a man baby😂😂😂
Hockey players are some of the nicest athletes out there so you know fucked up when you piss one of them off. Not including Torts though. He’s always angry
Bro I came here from an NBA reporters asking stupid questions video, and GOOD FREAKING GRIEF NHL reporters are SO much worse. NBA reporters at least try to hide when they’re doing unethical or disrespectful stuff, like trying to bait players, say instigative stuff, insult them, take their words outta context etc. NHL reporters don’t even do that. They’re blatant with it, deliberately ignore players/coaches when they say they don’t wanna talk about it, then get mad at players/coaches when they take offense to it and act as if they’re the victim. If I played in the NHL I’d 100% just skip out on all the interviews
One of the best was back in the Broad Street Bullies days, after a Flyers win, Gene Hart was going to interview Andre Dupont after the game, Moose comes in, blows shot out of his nose, spits, and picks a honker out of his nose. He thought the interview was going to be on radio. I wish there was video of this.
5:41 i cant really make out the reporter but i heard security ask him to leave. what did he say? Edit: it took me a few listens but it's his phone ringing lol
"So you're an expert? Did you see it? You're an expert?" Lol @Sutton. McDavid never seems to look older than about 20, lol. And I freaking love Torts and Chris Pronger!!
Some of these media personnel should lose their jobs for the stupidity that they expect these players/coaches to answer. They're clearly looking to get a reaction rather than actually do their jobs.
Man people think the MSM are idiot. Look at the Sport Journalist questions. Man I feel how any sportstar, coach, or manager does not want to do interviews. I know some can be good, or both sides have a laugh, and fuck around. But most of them are braindead questions.
Some of the responses are great. Tortorella can be a loose canon at times, but his first response here is very articulate and reasonable. He gets an A+ in my books on that first question and has some other fine responses. Ron Wilson from the Leafs gets a F+. He loved to publicly throw players under the bus and avoid responsibility. I'm glad someone put him on the spot!
Why media has to be rude to the players and coaches, are they serious, they are human beings, leave them alone and understand about personal space, absolute no respect and they ask the same question in the different way, what's with that, how about apology to them and understand their situation better, it's can be hard and tiring for for coaches and players after games so make questions respectable, at least
I loved Timmy Thomas’s reaction to that question the best and John Tortorella, the questions that they ask him and his reaction is classic love, John Tortorella as a coach. I’m just surprised that he hasn’t had much more success.
Sorry but Thomas was in the wrong. It did have to do with the Boston bruins and hockey, because he bailed on a team event. He handled that whole thing very poorly. If it was a one off comment about politics he would be right. But to say it had nothing to do with the bruins is wrong.
He has his beliefs. I wouldn’t have gone knowing the Obummer administration was corrupt as all heck ! He was never a legitimate president to begin with he was born in Kenya not Hawaii 🤯
@@thefriesens1071 not even close, since none of those people refused to speak the media about it or pretend like it didn’t have anything to do with their team. They were all happy to have that discussion. The issue wasn’t him skipping the event, it was his ignorance of thinking that what he did or said had nothing to do with his team. Because it 100000% did
