Kimmo Timonen and Scott Hartnell pull on the nostalgic heartstrings

Want to get hit with a serious wave of nostalgia? Kimmo Timonen has you covered.

And even though Scott Hartnell is still with the Columbus Blue Jackets, he’s helping out on that front, too.

Great honor to be standing up in my best friends wedding!!! #bestman #1000games

Oh no, there’s so much to unpack here. For one thing, what a nice bottle! For another thing, Timonen looks very small next to Hartnell. And for a third thing: Hartnell’s shirt! He has his own Team Finland World Cup of Hockey shirt. That’s amazing.

(Oh, and congrats to Hartnell on the new marriage, apparently!)

And then, this:

Aww. It’s weird to think about how hockey brings people together like this. In how many other scenarios would someone from Saskatchewan end up best friends with someone from Finland?

But it’s really awesome to see that still going strong. The Flyers’ future looks bright, but the fan favorites of old were pretty awesome, too.
