Rasmus Ristolainen Day-To-Day With Upper-Body Injury
5 hours agoPhiladelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen (upper body) is viewed as day-to-day. Fantasy managers should keep a close eye on his status leading up to their next contest on Saturday evening against the Hurricanes as he may face an uphill battle to suit up. If he were to miss this contest, fantasy managers should expect Egor Zemula to enter the starting lineup and play alongside rookie Emil Andrae on the bottom pairing. Ristolainen was unable to play during their previous game on Thursday evening as well. Before his injury, the 30-year-old was held off the scoresheet over his last six games. However, during this stretch, he logged 10 hits with seven blocks. Before this offensive slump, Ristolainen tallied six points over his last seven. When he is cleared to return, he will only carry value in deeper formats that reward hits and blocked shots.
