Kimmo [Timonen] was involved in the rush, and two defensemen went on for one guy ... It's unfortunate, because neither one of the guys on the ice had anything to do with the play.
We could be sitting here with a (full-salary cap) team with guys like Kimmo Timonen and Tomas Vokoun
Jones, who we have signed, [Braydon] Coburn and [Kimmo] Timonen all had [at least 31 points] last year. So those are basically our offensive guys. We think our defense is better.
This isn't a veteran team that was just put together to try and win it. This is a group that's going to grow together, even including guys like Kimmo Timonen and Scottie Hartnell. This is their first experience going this far. That's the good news for us, we're going forward. They'll get better and then you make the adjustments.
We'll see if we can split Kimmo (Timonen) and use two of him, one against Crosby, one against Malkin
Kostopoulos, he's a tough kid and I've got a lot of respect for him and [Steve] Bégin ... But to go up and blindside sucker Kimmo Timonen on a play at the end there, that's cowardly, in my opinion.
To go up and blindside-sucker Kimmo Timonen ... that's cowardly, in my opinion ... There's no place for that. Kimmo's our best player. He's totally unsuspecting. That leaves a bad taste in your mouth.
Every time we face a team, we focus on the best player ... Daniel won't be any different, and we'll also focus on [Flyers defenceman Kimmo] Timonen.
We had three other chances to end it ... Tom Poti in overtime, Fedorov (off the knob of Biron's stick) Kozlov on the breakaway late in the third before he got knocked headfirst into the net by the phantom (the Flyers' Kimmo Timonen knocked Kozlov into Biron, but Kozlov was given a goalie interference penalty instead).
