“We took the video on the bench off the bench because we want them to just worry about their next shift,” Tortorella said after the Flyers’ 5-3 win Wednesday over Washington. “I think it’s a major problem with us, understanding the momentums of the game,” You can’t understand momentums of the game if you’re looking at the iPad all the time.
“We took them off and aren’t even going to use them, so that they watch the game and see what’s next.”

I actually like this idea a lot. If a player needs to understand what went right or wrong with a play, let the appropriate coach explain it to him. Focus. Focus. Focus.
