Closing in on return According to coach Alain Vigneault, Lindblom (illness) will participate in warmups ahead of Tuesday's Game 5, but he's likely still a few days away from returning to game action.

Impact The Flyers are facing elimination Tuesday, but if they're able to pull off a win, it's possible Lindblom will be ready to return before Philadelphia's second-round series with the Islanders comes to an end. The 24-year-old winger hasn't played since being diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma in December.

Makes final roster Lindblom (illness) was included on the team's 31-man playoff roster Sunday, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.

Impact Lindblom recently signed a new three-year, $9 million contract with the team after he was diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma in December. The Swede had skated in a top-six role for the club through the first 30 games of 2019-20, picking up 11 goals and 18 assists. It's unclear whether he'll be ready to play in game action when the NHL's season resumes Aug. 1.

Lands three-year extension Lindblom (illness) signed a three-year, $9 million contract extension with the Flyers on Wednesday.

Impact Lindblom was having a breakout season of sorts before being diagnosed with Ewing's sarcoma in December and subsequently missing the remainder of the campaign, picking up 11 goals and 18 points while skating in a top-six role through the first 30 games of 2019-10. The 23-year-old winger likely won't take part in this year's expanded playoffs, but he's already been skating on his own, and he's expected to be 100 percent healthy when next season's training camp gets underway, whenever that may be. He'll be a sneaky good pick in the later rounds of next year's fantasy drafts as an under-the-radar player with 30-goal and 50-point upside.
