People across the NHL have shown support for Philadelphia Flyers forward Oskar Lindblom during his fight with cancer and the support for the 23-year-old has been growing day after day.

On Saturday night, the Flyers make their lone trip of the season to Arizona for a date with the Coyotes and the hosts are doing something incredibly thoughtful for the tilt.

On Saturday night, members of the Coyotes will be wearing #OskarStrong shirts underneath their jerseys as a way to show Lindblom they have his back during this tough time.

“This is something way bigger than the game, you want to see Oskar get healthy, it’s way beyond hockey & we want to support. We’re a small community when it comes down to stuff like this, everyone’s here for each other & we’re going to support him however we can.” - @j_chychrun7 pic.twitter.com/uX5MSwyYir
