RotoWire's Preseason Outlooks
2014-15
2013-14
Even at 38, Timonen still figures to have significant fantasy value if he can stay healthy. Last season he was a top-10 defensive points-getter, despite fracturing his foot and missing the final 3 games of the season. With a healthy foot and fewer distractions behind him in goal, he could continue collecting elite-level points.
2012-13
Expect Timonen to be the elite blue-liner he’s been for the last seven seasons. Last year, he posted an impressive 43 points with all four of his goals coming on the man-advantage. This skilled defenseman knows how to make his way onto the scoresheet with 30-plus assists every year since 2005-06 and, with an incredibly capable group of forwards in front of him, Timonen should do well in 2012-13.
