Lindblom Oskar Lindblom Thread: 20-21 Masterton Trophy Winner (9/24/21 Scan - Cancer Free)

[Din Djarin]

by Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia

"Mike Milbury wasn't analyzing a Flyers game. He was calling the Bruins-Lightning contest Tuesday night at Amalie Arena on NBC Sports Network. And in doing so, on a national broadcast, he showed that he's "Oskar Strong" for Oskar Lindblom. Milbury sported an "Oskar Strong" pin during the game to support Lindblom"

Much respect to Milbury for 'Oskar Strong' gesture

Can you please stop cutting onions?

Find someone who looks at you like Oscar does Lappy and Laughts.

 

[AdamParrot]

It's... something else...
I have to be fair... When I saw first photo, I didnt realize that's Oskar.. when I realized I almost cried..

#OscarStrong !!!

 

[Domino666]

It's crazy in spite of him battling this shitty disease Oskar always has a smile on his face, what an amazing human, I hope you have a full recovery!!!!

They were saying he was there for the candid photos but wasnt in the actual team picture?!

Kid is getting to the point where localized control is recommended.

Induction chemo (8-12 wks) => localized control (cut that shit out) => maintenance chemo (additional 28-49 wks)

Long journey, but the first leg is almost down!

Rando on twitter with a morale idea I liked: everybody on the team shaves his head at the start of the playoffs in solidarity. Unclear if that means the playoff beards have to go or not, but I'm mainly thinking of Jake with a clean top and shaggy bottom. Berserker mode.

It'd be quite a striking image in warmups and probably would be picked up nationally (er, internationally). A strong show of unity and everyone on the same page.

Awesome to see him, I'm sure he's in some of the team photos. Vigneault in the front row next to Jake with the gloves on, what a beaut. Lovely buncha hockey guys.

Jake would look like Alan from the Hangover

I do like this idea!

He's not in the linked big group shot (which also has a foreground object/blur on the left ) despite playing more games this season than Patrick, who is in the picture.

Edit: Morin is in, too. And someone wearing #25 who really does not look like JVR to me . Unless there is an official group shot that we haven't seen yet (and that is possible), Flyers messed up here.

He's in the official photo (without all the people/gritty in the back). Issac said he didn't have that photo somewhere in the comments. So he posted this instead, because why not.

Oh wait, I know why. Because he's a f***ing hack

OK, ignore my edit, then. That picture was also posted by the official team account, so I don't know what's going on today. Spring fever?

 

[Tripod]

I am confused. Why isn't Oskar in every team photo???

Maybe he didn't want the extra attention. There are probably multiple photos taken some that includes office personnel. But the one that is archived usually is limited to players, upper management, coaches, hockey ops and select staff.

his immune system has to be compromised, likely best to not be by 100s of people sharing an office together and passing along illnesses amongst themselves (which is EVERY office environment).

great point.

 

[MiamiScreamingEagles]

^Especially with the current extra precautions taken.

Seriously, who the f*** is that?!?!

A staffer subbing for JVR whose image will be superimposed.

 

[RonHextall27]

Jvr must be in bad shape if he can't make team picture day but the guy being treated for cancer shows up.
