Oskar beat Cancer’s ass, and he managed to do what he loves to do…play hockey, as he managed to play in some playoff games for the Flyers in September. He will return 100% this coming season, as Oskar apparently flew back to Philly last week.
He has defied all the odds, and just appears to always be in good spirits. Oskar is one of the his first, kindest people one can ever meet. Oskar rarely is seen without a smile on his face.
Lindblom will come into the season looking to make an impact for the orange and black. He is welcomed with open arms by everyone, and always remain #OskarStrong.
