How the return of Oskar Lindblom helped lift the Flyers to game 6 OT win

The Flyers were able to push their way into game 7 last night in the most chaotic of games. It would take two overtime periods to separate the two teams, but it was the orange and black who eventually came out on top in a back-and-forth game that was filled with surprises. Perhaps the most pleasant surprise of all, however, was the return of Oskar Lindblom.

In 30 games this season, Lindblom notched 11 goals and seven assists before his world was turned upside down. he young star was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma and would embark on a scary, yet remarkable journey.
