Tortorella’s fiery and expletive laced speech leads Blue Jackets to incredible comeback victory

If you missed last night’s Stanley Cup Playoff opener between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Columbus Blue Jackets you missed an absolute BARN BURNER.

Despite falling down 3-0, the Blue Jackets absolutely STORMED back to earn a stunning 4-3 victory, something that NO team was able to do to the Lightning the ENTIRE season.

Just check out some of these plays:

First, David Savard channels Bobby Orr to score this absolute BEAUTY.

So… what spurred this team on to victory? Well it might have had something to do with this AWESOME pre-game speech by head coach John Tortorella:
