Elliotte Friedman says to watch out for this defenceman at the trade deadline

Hockey insider Elliotte Friedman believes that there's going to be a lot of interest in Philadelphia Flyers defenceman Rasmus Ristolainen.

Ristolainen is a big 6'4, two-way defender. His points are down this season but could definitely help a playoff team. Ristolainen is a UFA at the end of this season, and has scored 47 goals and 206 assists in 577 NHL games.
