It’s just great to be home, it’s a sense of relief, the home cooking, seeing family and friends. The Flyers are always happy to see Oskar Lindblom.

Lindblom brightens everyone’s day, as Alain Vigneault loves the kid. The young man in Lindblom paid a visit to the Flyers in practice back in January. He gives them a sense of hope, and is a ray of sunshine. Lindblom is so strong, and mentally tough. Vigneault calls him “Sunshine”:

The PHWA has nominated Lindblom as the Masterton Trophy nominee for 2020 (Which is awarded annually to the National Hockey League player who best exemplifies the qualities of perseverance, sportsmanship, and dedication to ice hockey). This is an honor, as Lindblom is battling Ewing’s Sarcoma, and is entering the final stages of his treatment process, according to Brent Flahr on April 28th.

Athletes are human too. Lindblom is always happy, upbeat, and in good spirits daily. It’s tough for a team to lose that type of upbeat personality in the locker room. Whatever the case maybe, Lindblom is hoping to get back on the ice soon. Everyone remain #OskarStrong. We are in this fight together with Lindblom.
