EDGE Analysis

This is why the 22-year-old blueliner is so highly regarded. Even when he's not posting points, he still finds a way to impact the game. Ristolainen has four points -- all assists -- in his nine games played so far. The Finland native should see his point production rise soon, as he's averaging a ridiculous 27:27 of ice time per game.
