Injury Report: Kimmo Timonen (foot) August 27, 2013 update (post #92)

[Invictus146]

Kimmo's a tough, tough guy. Here's hoping he heals quickly and can play (effectively) through the pain (don't want to think of the other options... - LALALAAA)

Sign derian hatcher to a 10 day contract.

Damn it, where's David sloane when you need him?

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

with the warrior that Timonen it is concerning he didn't play the last half of the 3rd. If hes out for any length I am not sure they can survive it. They have got by the last 6 days on heart, guts and duct tape.

Agreed. Unfortunately this might be the injury they can't overcome. The defense has played well considering the the difficult circumstances recently. Kimmo's the anchor back there right now. Losing him would be a tough blow to this team.

Im sure if hes out Rosehill would go to the blueline. He would be better then Foster

Schenn/Gus
Gervais/Huskins
OL/Rosehill

I was actually pretty impressed with Rosehill tonight when you consider what his role is. Scored a goal, won a fight, threw some big hits, took some regular shifts. He pretty much wasn't Jody Shelley tonight.

im sure he was jacked up to play the Leafs tonight. You know things are rolling well for you when Rosehill has the GWG

If this keeps up it might be worth trading for someone even though they wouldn't be eligible for the playoffs.

I can't remember the last time our injuries were this bad

We have to be having an injury per game the last week or two

 

[kimmofan44]

at least homer went and picked us up a decent defenseman at the deadline, since he knew we reaaaally need defense right now. and picking up that defenseman in the first round of the draft last year was key too. oh wait ..........

Holmgren can't win in the eyes of people like you. If he traded picks or prospects for a d man, people would whine. There was really no one serviceable out there that wasn't ridiculously priced.

Also If you look at the players on the board at the time we were drafting last year, the next 3 dmen were maatta, matheson, and schmaltz. Since the draft, it's looked like Laughton is the best prospect of the group. Holmgren made the right call on Laughton.

Yes, things have gotten out of hand. Its really bad

The 2004 playoffs when Sami Kapanen played defense.

 

[Domino666]

I expect a quick recovery, like he'll be back Sat, Kimmo after all is Odin's son, he was always picking on Thor and Loki, so I guess his siblings got together and are playing a trick on us Flyers fans

[DrinkFightFlyers]

Yeesh. If that doesn't kill the season, I don't know what will.

I only got to see one of Laughton's playoff games, but he was the best, fastest, smartest player on the ice. Better than the more heralded, and very good, Boone Jenner and Ryan Strome.

 

[Codith]

No Mesz, Briere, Coburn, Talbot.....4 game win streak....Coincidence?

 

[ClarkeRuled]

Can we play Bryz and Mason at the same time?

I agree. No matter what the GM does it is wrong. If they did the draft over now you still could pick those three at 20 but Laughton would be long gone.

 

[SolidSnakeUS]

I have a feeling, even with Timonen out, we can still win. I hope Timonen can just magically shake it off and become a god once more .

 

[ClarkeRuled]

Is Mike Rathje available?

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

Here is Tim P.'s latest:

Kimmo Timonen will be re-examined today in Winnipeg. He was limping after game and team sources say they are hopeful for good news 2day

Better than Strome who went three spots ahead of Couturier in 2011? I like the sound of that.
