It has been a long couple of days for John Tortorella and the Vancouver Canucks...

And the HQ loves how Bob 'artley didn't engage Torts at all...

132 minutes in penalties were doled out by the time they were done...

Here's the highlights...
And the fights in the third that gave the Canucks 58 minutes of penalties in the period... Tom Sestito, Jannik Hansen and Zack Kassian all got misconduct penalties with 7:11 to play. Kevin Bieksa wasn't far behind... ((HT:SNP/SomeHockeyVideos))
The Ducks improved to 20-0-2 at home...
