In a heart-warming and inspiring turn of events, New York Rangers forward Mika Zibanejad has contacted BiscuitTees.com to order #OskarStrong shirts for him and some of his teammates ahead of Monday's game against the Philadelphia Flyers.
This is, of course, a showing of support for Flyers forward Oskar Lindblom, who earlier this month, was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma, a form of bone cancer.
Zibanejad, along with Jesper Fast and Henrik Lundqvist, among a few others are expected to wear these shirts beneath their jerseys to show love for their fellow Swede, Lindblom during this difficult time.
What an act of pure class by Zibanejad and the Rangers. Cancer affects everyone in some way. It's nice to see players showing solidarity, regardless of what colour jersey they wear.
