This is incredible and EXACTLY what Guy Gaudreau needs to help him heal, albeit brutally painful for the man. The alternative however for him to sit home and grieve unable to watch hockey on TV is worse. I’ve read Guy had a hard nosed coaching style so he’s actually a perfect fit with Torts whom I’ve always respected.
Respect all around for Torts and the Gaudreau family. There will forever be all the room for support. All of Gaudreaus loved ones need our love comfort peace and support forever. Rest in Heaven Johnny and Matthew 💙💙❤️❤️🙏
What a beautiful move by John. Absolutely beautiful. Way to go and congratulations John . And I agree that it’s great for him to be around you hockey people. The best
Tort has always had my respect. A classy act from a passionate man who empathize with another's loss and his need for a place of healing. His second home. The hockey ring he shared with his son's. 👏👏👏👏. Well done
I’ve always been a fan of Torts. I’ve always felt and wished whenever they had a chance, the Toronto Maple Leafs should have brought him in and hired him as a head coach.
I know Torts has a reputation of having an irritable and edgy personality but I have so much love and respect for him for this kind gesture to Guy Gaudreau.
And there is the guy that yells and screams,and yet when it comes down to reality he offers a strong hand to help. Torts is part of a lost tribe that takes point on a difficult mission. HNIC should have him as a consultant
What an outstanding gesture on Torts behalf . Much respect, class.
Torts is a true hockey guy. Respect
He gets a bad rap but Torts is an absolute gem of a human.
A good human. Thanks Torts ❤
Torts has a wonderful heart

Don't ever underestimate the bond hockey players have, and how big its family is. Great tribute Tortorella and the Flyers organization
That's nice of Torts.
Rangers fan here, missing Torts. He's got a good heart. Good on him and the Flyers for this gesture.

My favourite coach in the league.
This shows the humanity of hockey and kudo to Torts!!!
this is awesome.. this is a hockey Dad who needs to be around it. Good call coach.
Torts always does what’s right, whether you like him or not. As Don would say, he’s a beauty.
Johnny would love the effort the boys are making this year.
Good for you Torts

Man my heart breaks for the man and his family.Crushing
Great guy!
God Bless you Mr Tortorella.🙏. This will heal little bit of Mr Gaudreau’s broken heart. 💔
Mad respect here. No previous connection but sees the way froward to be thoughtful and compassionate. Torts is a first class guy.
What a great man Tortorella is. I'm speechless.
Torts class act!❤️
Ending, dig deep right now lol
NHL is a global family Torts reaching out to family is just such a wonderful gesture.
What a fantastic move.
Torts is a real human. When he's mad he's really mad but no words can describe when he's kind
Completely caught off guard with this.What an amazing gesture.♥️👏
Always liked Tortorella. You know where you stand with this guy. There is nothing left to interpretation. 🍻
I’m not a Torts fan as a coach but this is an awesome gesture as a human being
Loved hearing about this. What a class gesture.
I love this!! Much Respect!! ❤

We can see all this endless sadness in Guy's face this is absolutely heartbreaking
See that’s the kind of guy torts is… amazing
This made me cry…
I like the gesture. Not a surprise given his reaction to the death of Elvis Merlikens’ brother. Not a surprise.
Coach Torts ! Classsssasssy !
That's killing me watching Johnny's Dad cry
A coach is a coach regardless of level

Class man
I’ve always been a fan of Torts. I’ve always felt and wished whenever they had a chance, the Toronto Maple Leafs should have brought him in and hired him as a head coach.
Class Act Torts ...
😭thanks!
Poor guy… seeing him with his kids and seeing him a broken man is painful. No parent should ever see their kids go like this.
Torts is a rough character but he has a heart.
I know Torts has a reputation of having an irritable and edgy personality but I have so much love and respect for him for this kind gesture to Guy Gaudreau.
Torts hero arc
Fuck yeah torts. He coached my son he is an amazing man.
Wow ❤❤
Wow!
And there is the guy that yells and screams,and yet when it comes down to reality he offers a strong hand to help.
Torts is part of a lost tribe that takes point on a difficult mission.
HNIC should have him as a consultant
Tort's is a good coach and a better human being.
❤
Parents never should have to bury their own children. So terrible :(
Torts is really a great guy, he gets a bad rap.
Oh he’s a solid dude. Spectacular human being
I love Torts
