Major injury update for the Flyers!

This may be the best new the Flyers have had all year. Kimmo Timonen announced via his twitter that he will once again be back on the ice Additionally the Flyers held a press conference during the first intermission of tonight's game to confirm the announcement and make it official. While there's questions on exactly what kind of shape Timonen will be in, he was arguably the best defenseman on the team last year. And frankly, even if he can't tribute very much it will be good to see him end his career on his own terms .

Finally got some good news today!! Back to skating tomorrow after 8 months of RESTING.I will probably feel like I am 25 again! — Kime4kids (@kime4kids) February 6, 2015
