Ristolainen (upper body) will make his season debut Wednesday against the Bruins, Jordan Hall of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ristolainen missed Philadelphia's first two games of the season with an upper-body injury, but he resumed practicing Sunday, putting him on track to debut against Boston. The 26-year-old blueliner, who picked up 18 points in 49 games with the Sabres last season, should slot into a top-four role for Wednesday's contest.
