Cathartic hearing Torts break it all down. RIP Larry Brooks!!!
Classy comments by Torts
Steve Levy is just like every other Ranger & hockey fan – we looked forward to reading Larry's column; and a great job by Torts, he spoke about Larry with respect and admiration.. RIP Larry 🙏🙏
Larry was the journalists version of Torts. RIP Larry. Enjoyed your work. You will be missed. PEACE! To all.
RIP Larry, to hear this news was honestly shocking. A month ago he was doing his podcast with Mollie Walker and Brian Boyle, and you could not tell for one moment that he was sick. His presence will be greatly missed. A true icon and big part of the Rangers. My condolences go out to his family, friends and colleagues.
Great Stuff Steve and John. . . Larry your writing is going to be missed and I'm on the West Coast. . . . REST EASY LB & LGR
Funny, I tuned in thinking that it might be the old story of "friends away from the rink.". Nope. What Torts is saying is "No, we weren't friends." I always appreciated Brooks for saying the hard things that needed to be said, not taking the easy way with the softballs that coaches and players expect. Big loss to hockey fans everywhere.
R. I. P. Brooksie 💔
Sad, painful day. Larry Brooks, truly one of a kind. RIP.
I have no respect for Torts.He's always been a bully and we don't need to hear this jerk now lying that we were colleagues.Torts was too stupid to realize his salary is based on Media.
Got it wrong on Torts he is a great guy . Has helped many young Ranger fans that have had health issues . Things u never hear about .
I will miss Larry.
RIP Larry! I’ll miss your writing and your comments on Up in the Blue Seats with Mollie and Brian. 💔🏒
I cannot lie. I was not a fan at all of Brooks. However, I hope he rests in peace and offer his family the best in this difficult time.
💔
From a Loving and Thankful Devils fan since 82, day 1 in Philthy. Check out the fun tune, "Devils Catch Fire." Larry sings back up…
As a Devils fam here in Philthy..I BEG OF YOU..NEVER EVER BELIEVE this isca Hockey town ba..Torts was too good for that horrible crest and dumbass fan base. Classy Torts, he is right…those blow ups are nit the time
Props to Torts for how he delivered his thoughts and feelings. RIP Larry Brooks.
Larry Brooks loved Eric Lindros. As a Flyers fan I always appreciated that!!!! He wrote some great stuff!!!
I love John Tortorella. We just went thru 3 seasons of full tank in philly last 3 years and already miss the press conferences. I love Tocchet but I also loved Tortorella. Tortorella is missed in philly already as we come out of the tank!!!!
RIP Larry, you left your mark on hockey and the Rangers. Tors, you're,as always, a class act!
God Bless Larry Brooks. A straight shooter always! When it would've been easy to suck up Larry just gave it to you straight. R.I.P buddy.
RIP Larry, you were the reason I read the Post. Thank you for everything, much love and thoughts and prayers for the family.
Rest in peace Larry
