Ristolainen notched an assist, three hits and three blocked shots in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers.
Ristolainen missed seven games due to a hand injury. The issue cost him an additional nine games during an earlier stint out of the lineup. He should be a lineup regular moving forward, though a recurring injury is never a great sign. Ristolainen has two points, six shots on net, 10 hits and 10 blocked shots across five outings this season.
