John Tortorella is back in the middle of the biggest stage in hockey, and that alone tells you this series has some extra juice. The Stanley Cup Final has a way of dragging old-school personalities into the spotlight, and Tortorella has never been the kind of coach who fades into the wallpaper. Front Office Sports frames him as the central character, which usually means there is more going on here than just goals, saves, and a shiny trophy.
