Steve Simmons at the Toronto Sun reports that John Tortorella seemed to have a problem with Mark Messier being near the team last season...
"Did you know that John Tortorella made it clear he didn’t want Mark Messier anywhere near the dressing room of the New York Rangers in the second half of the NHL season? Doesn’t sound like Messier is about to replace the should-be-replaced Glen Sather any day now."
...not sure where to start with this. If true, I'm sure there was a good reason that was talked about between the two.
...no way Torts, who has tremendous respect for the Rangers franchise (remember the locker room logo rule he implemented), would disrespect one of the greatest Rangers of all-time.
...and, I'm sorry, if this did happen it would have no effect on whether Messier is the next GM or not. Torts doesn't make that decision.
