*Alright folks we all know what every single Link today is going to be about: John Tortorella’s firing, which happened yesterday morning.

*A brief history of Torts’ time with the Flyers, which somehow feels very short but also very long. [Inquirer]

*Briere spoke with the media yesterday afternoon to explain things. [BSH]

*Here’s Charlie’s thoughts on the firing, if you subscribe to his website. [PHLY]

*Naturally, Flyers fans took to the internet to express their thoughts. They love expressing their thoughts. [Inquirer]

*So like… some of the guys are probably pretty psyched about this move, right? [BSH]

*Do you guys think this was the right time to fire the head coach? Or did the Flyers wait too long? Or maybe not long enough? [The Athletic]

*Speaking of “too soon”, we’re already speculating about who might be the best guy to replace Torts. [BSH]

*And finally, another thing technically happened yesterday: Jett’s hitting Allentown, confirmed. [BSH]

*OH WAIT RIGHT there was a game last night! The Flyers won. Naturally.
