It was exactly a year ago for Flyers forward Oskar Lindblom when his season came to a screeching halt.
The hockey world was rocked when the Flyers announced that Oskar Lindblom was diagnosed with Ewing’s Sarcoma. Everything became much bigger than hockey that fateful December day.
The entire league rallied around Lindblom as the fight for his life began. It was months of chemotherapy and surgery that brought him to that day in early-July. He rang the bell at the University of Pennsylvania.
