Senators-Flyers Ristolainen trade talks stalled

Ottawa wants Rasmus Ristolainen but refuses to part with top center prospects (Pinto, Cozens, or Greig). No progress; Staios remains patient. Pinto's contract year could affect his trade value; a new article highlights his growth (Selke votes, offensive uptick) as a $7.5M third-line center, potentially increasing his value. A recent centre depth piece rehashes the strength of the trio.
