Timeline

1975

Kimmo Samuel Timonen (born 18 March 1975) is a Finnish former professional ice hockey defenseman who played 16 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the Nashville Predators, Philadelphia Flyers, and Chicago Blackhawks.

Timonen had played in over 1,100 NHL games before retiring.

During his career, Timonen had also featured in three IIHF World Junior Championships, seven IIHF World Championships, two World Cups and five Olympic tournaments.

1993

Timonen was the youngest player to play for Finland at the 1993 IIHF World Junior Championships at the age of 17.

He recorded the second-highest shot total in the tournament with 44.

Timonen was drafted by the Los Angeles Kings in the tenth round, 250th overall, of the 1993 NHL Entry Draft.

After the draft, he continued to play in his native Finland for several years, first for KalPa and then later for TPS.

1998

In 1998, Timonen played on the bronze medal-winning Finnish Olympic team in Nagano.

Shortly after the Olympics, the Kings traded him, along with Jan Vopat, to the Nashville Predators organization (the team not yet having begun play) in agreement that Nashville would not select Garry Galley in the 1998 NHL Expansion Draft.

During the 1998–99 season, Timonen split time between Nashville and their IHL affiliate, the Milwaukee Admirals.

The following year, he was promoted to a full-time NHL player.

2004

He played the next four seasons for the Predators, steadily improving his offensive output, until the 2004–05 NHL lockout.

During the lockout, Timonen played for his hometown team, KalPa, which he partly owns with former Flyers teammate Sami Kapanen.

Timonen also persuaded his teammate Adam Hall to play for KalPa for the duration of the lockout.

Timonen represented Finland at the 2004 World Cup of Hockey and led his team in scoring with six points, the fifth-highest total overall in the tournament.

2006

On 3 October 2006, Timonen was named the captain of the Nashville Predators for the 2006–07 season.

That season proved to be a career year for Timonen, as he registered career highs in both assists and total points.

Following the 2006–07 season, Timonen was traded to the Philadelphia Flyers.

Shortly after, he signed a six-year, $37.8 million contract extension with them, a deal which made him the highest paid Finn in the NHL.

At the time, Timonen's younger brother Jussi Timonen was playing for the Philadelphia Phantoms, the Flyers' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate.

2007

However, Jussi was subsequently traded to the Dallas Stars early in the 2007–08 season.

2008

The Flyers beat the Washington Capitals 4–3 and the Montreal Canadiens 4–1 in the first two rounds of the 2008 Stanley Cup playoffs.

During Game 4 of the Flyers' series with Montreal, Timonen was hit by a wrist shot on his foot by Canadiens defenseman Andrei Markov.

Timonen felt numbness in his foot as the week progressed, though believed it to be nothing but a twisted nerve.

After an MRI failed to reveal any injury, Timonen had the foot examined at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, where, on 8 May, the doctor found a small blood clot in his foot.

He was sidelined indefinitely and missed the first four games of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Timonen returned for Game 5, but the Flyers eventually lost the game and their playoff run came to an end.

2009

In the 2009–10 regular season, Timonen led all NHL defensemen in shorthanded goals scored, with two.

That year, Timonen would play in his first ever Stanley Cup Finals, though the Flyers would lose to the Chicago Blackhawks in a six-game series.

2011

Timonen scored his 100th career goal on 5 March 2011, against the Buffalo Sabres.

He ended the season in a tie with Marc Staal for most shorthanded goals among defensemen, with two.

2012

Timonen recorded his 500th career point with an assist on 1 March 2012, against the New York Islanders.

2013

He played his 1,000th NHL game on 18 March 2013, his 37th birthday.

2014

While preparing for the 2014–15 season, on 5 August 2014, Timonen was diagnosed with blood clots in both of his lungs as well as in his right leg.

The serious nature of injury ruled Timonen out indefinitely with the Flyers.

2015

He won the Stanley Cup with the Chicago Blackhawks in 2015 in his final career game.

Approaching the NHL trade deadline, and returning to health after missing the first 62 games of the season, Timonen was traded by the Flyers to the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for a 2015 second-round pick and 2016 conditional fourth-round pick on 27 February 2015.

He left the Flyers organization as the third most productive defenseman in franchise history, with 270 points in 519 games.

On 21 March 2015, he played in his 1,100th NHL game.

2020

He was inducted into the IIHF Hall of Fame in 2020.
