Rasmus Ristolainen was part of a newly created power-play unit that contributed to the Flyers' offensive success in the game. His involvement helped the team break an eight-game power-play goal drought, showcasing his importance in revitalizing the Flyers' special teams play.

Rasmus Ristolainen's recent performance has increased his trade value, making it more challenging for the Flyers to move him. While the Flyers are considering adding depth to their blue line, they may face a higher asking price for Ristolainen due to his improved play.

Rasmus Ristolainen, currently with the Philadelphia Flyers, is listed among the top players who could be traded before the deadline, carrying a cap hit of $5.1 million.

Ristolainen, a former Buffalo Sabre, could be on the move from the Flyers if the right deal presents itself. After missing 51 games last season due to a torn tricep, he has remained healthy this year, but his $5.1 million AAV contract for two more years may require Philadelphia's GM to retain salary or take back a contract to facilitate a trade.

Rasmus Ristolainen inadvertently deflected a shot from Utah's Michael Carcone into the net, contributing to the Flyers' defensive struggles in the game. His presence on the ice was noted during key moments, but the team ultimately faced challenges in generating scoring chances against Utah's solid defense.
