Kimmo Timonen, Scott Hartnell has two words for you.
The NHL All-Star Game is this weekend in San Jose, California, and the stars are out in full force, including Timonen, who is working for a TV station in his native Finland.
During media day Thursday, Timonen found Claude Giroux, who he played with for seven seasons in the orange and black, and asked him one very important question.
Kimmo Timonen, who is working as a member of the media, asked @28CGiroux who his favorite old-time Flyers player was...
"Scott Hartnell"
Their reactions are priceless. 😂#NHLAllStar pic.twitter.com/xoH13bkdam— NBC Sports Philadelphia (@NBCSPhilly) January 25, 2019
It's possible he could have asked his "all-time" favorite, forgive us for mishearing.
Philadelphia Flyers

His answer, and reaction, were awesome and it looks like Hartnell agrees.

This video brought back some nostalgia for Flyers fans who recall the glory days of these three guys playing together en route to a Stanley Cup Final appearance.
We look forward to seeing Giroux represent the Flyers in San Jose in the NHL Skills Competition Friday at 9 p.m. and Saturday on NBC at 8 p.m.
