Flyers coach John Tortorella was suspended for two games and fined $50,000 for unprofessional conduct directed at the officials by refusing to leave the bench area after being assessed a game misconduct at 10:49 of the first period in the Flyers’ 7-0 loss to Tampa Bay on Saturday night at Amalie Arena.
The announcement was made by Senior Executive Vice President of Hockey Operations Colin Campbell.
Tortorella will miss the next two games — Tuesday night against San Jose and Thursday night against Toronto. The fine money goes to the NHL Foundation.
