Tortorella fined 30K

Well for those of you who sat around watching the end of the Winter Classic and thought that the penalty

shot with virtually no time remaining was a huge ploy by Gary Bettman and the rest of the NHL to add a little more hype to the game for future Classic's ratings, you weren't the only one. John Tortorella was right there with you. In his post game news conference he was very vocal on how the end of the game was called. Calling out no calls by the refs and then wondering if NBC and the NHL had gotten together there at the end to make that call to make the game more exciting. Alright Tort tell the media what we all were thinking! Unfortunately we the fans can say and think whatever we want, we are not employed in the NHL. So Tortorella got smacked with a 30k fine yesterday for questioning the integrity of the league. Since then he has come out and apologized over and over. But, still fined.
