Re: The NHL Thread
Flyers had a presser on Timonen. The two big quotes I pulled from the webcast...
Hextall: “The one definitive we have is that Kimmo will not play for a period of time here, meaning months,” Hextall said while addressing the media in his opening statement.
“We’ll have a follow-up appointment probably somewhere early in the new year. Basically show the progress that he’s made in regards to the blood clots, and hopefully everything is clear so we can move on to the next step. Whether Kimmo will play, we don’t know at this point. It will be more of a wait-and-see if his clots have cleared up and then move along the process from there.”
Timonen: “It was really swollen,” Timonen said. “They sent me to an ultrasound specialist and from there I was in the hospital pretty quick. Up until that point I was really excited about this year and really put a good effort to play my last year really well. But then everything changed...
“Obviously I want to play, but the chances of me playing is really slim. That’s the fact. But I’m ready to wait that chance to see how I feel, if I still have those clots in time, who knows when.”
