  1. Pat Billings from CDN, Canada writes: Looks like the Flyers are out of lucky breaks.

    Timmonen is by far their most mobile D-man. He was the only one who could keep up with the Habs. If Smith and Hatcher are asked to try to skate with Crosby, Malkin and Co. it's going to be ugly.
  2. R Miller from Canada writes: This is a huge loss for Philly.

    This guy is probably one of the few guys who can defend against Malkin and co.

    Tough break.
  3. Dave The Rave from Ottawa, Canada writes: Timmonen was the guy who shut down Ovechkin and Kovalev. This changes the outlook for the Flyers big time. And not in a good way. Tough to see how Philly will pull this out.
  4. Jeff O from Canada writes: Hey Pat Billings. Was Timmonen really the only Flyer who could skate with the Habs?

    By the way, I forgot... Who are the Canadiens playing in the third round?

    Oh that's right, now I remember. They're playing nobody, because they got their butts handed to them by Philadelphia.
  5. Scot Loucks from Pickering, Canada writes: Ouch..... this is seriously going to hurt.

    All bets are off I'm afraid. Should be interesting to see who will be the man back there for the Flyers.

    Cheers
  6. R Miller from Halifax, Canada writes: No way, Loucks! You made your bed... Now, you have to lie in it !

    Get ready for Pickett's charge!

    Cheers.
  7. Scot Loucks from Pickering, Canada writes: Miller.... it would have been nice if the article had appeared before the 7:00pm pick deadline :(

    Lets see if someone steps up.

    I still like Philly.... but it will probably take 7.

    Cheers
