Oskar Lindblom Expected to Miss the Remainder of the Season

The injury bug strikes the Flyers yet again, but this is the worst one yet. Though he was ruled out with an upper-body injury earlier this week, the Flyers just announced that Oskar Lindblom has been diagnosed with Ewing’s sarcoma; he is not expected to return this season. Lindblom has been a top performer for this team as he is tied for leader in goals scored (11) and has 18 points on the season. While this is a tough loss for the Flyers as a team, it’s even tougher news to receive at the beginning of your hockey career.
