Ristolainen returned to the ice for the morning skate, expressing that he is feeling better. Despite the setback, he remains optimistic about a return to action in the 'coming weeks', stating that he hopes to be back on the ice sooner rather than later.
The Flyers' official injury report shed light on Ristolainen's status, and the team's reporter, Charlie O'Connor, added additional context, mentioning, ''Rasmus Ristolainen is on the ice as well today. He's in a yellow shirt, meaning no-contact for him, as is Marc Staal. But this is the first time we've seen Risto in a while.''
As Ristolainen works towards a return, the Flyers will likely monitor his progress, ensuring a cautious approach to ensure his full recovery before returning to game action.
