Saturday night the Philadelphia Flyers faced off against the Tampa Bay Lightning in an Eastern Conference matchup. Both teams are trying to make a final push for the playoffs, tempers were at a boiling point. It took less than 12 minutes for Philadelphia Flyers head coach John Tortorella to be ejected from the game.
This ejection was unique because after being told to leave the bench Torts refused. Eventually, after an extended discussion cooler tempers finally prevailed and Tortorella went to the locker room. At the time the Flyers were already down four to zero and Torts was particularly unhappy with a call from everyone's least favored official. Wes McCauley.
