Rasmus Sandin

TORONTO – Look no further than Rasmus Sandin for the twists and turns playoff drama, those split-second swings of emotion and perspective that get fans acting deliriously irrational. The youngest Toronto Maple Leaf had his face to his own goalie and was two strides slow in his playoff debut when...

Sandin (undisclosed) is slated to return to the lineup for Thursday's Game 5 versus Montreal, Jonas Siegel of The Athletic reports. Sandin is expected to replace Travis Dermott on Toronto's third pairing for Thursday's contest following his one-game absence. He's picked up a goal and four shots on net through three playoff games this year.

I remember when I first took notice of how good a young defenseman the Toronto Maple Leafs’ Rasmus Sandin might become. It was during the Sandin’s successful World Junior Tournament during early January 2020. However, I shouldn’t have been surprised. Even before the World Juniors, Sandin has shown his talent...

Sandin (undisclosed) is a scratch for Game 4 against Montreal on Tuesday, Kevin McGran of The Toronto Star reports. It's unclear if he's injured or a healthy scratch. Sandin's absence is of the somewhat unexpected variety, as he wasn't reportedly dealing with injury prior to the game and has averaged a whopping 4:34 of power-play time through the first three games of the series. Nonetheless, the blueliner will look to return for Game 5 back in Toronto on Thursday.

Sandin scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canadiens in Game 2. Sandin's first postseason goal came on a feed from Mitch Marner in the second period. The 21-year-old Sandin has played both games in the playoffs so far due to Ben Hutton's (undisclosed) lingering absence. Sandin only recorded four assists in nine regular-season appearances, but he'll get a boost by seeing significant power-play time when he's in the lineup -- he logged 5:09 with the man advantage and just 14:32 overall in a third-pairing role Saturday.

Sandin notched an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Canadiens. The Swedish blueliner has four assists and a plus-6 rating through nine appearances. Sandin is essentially locked in to a third-pairing job as long as Zach Bogosian (shoulder) is out. The two blueliners could compete for playing time in the playoffs.

When the Toronto Maple Leafs went through line rushes at practice on Friday, there was some initial confusion as to Rasmus Sandin's status.

Sandin picked up an assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Canucks. Sandin moved up to the top pairing with T.J. Brodie and was exceptional. Earlier this week, his coach Sheldon Keefe said Sandin would like play every game for the remainder of the season with Zach Bogosian sidelined. With strong defensive play and two points in his last three games, Sandin may already be forcing his way into a permanent position on the blue line. He could offer late season fantasy help if he keeps this up.

It’s a funny thing about defensive defensemen. If you don’t see them, that’s good. But for offensive defensemen like the Toronto Maple Leafs Morgan Rielly or Rasmus Sandin, they are almost always visible on the ice. It seems they have the puck a lot more. Over the past three games,...

Sandin is expected to be promoted to Toronto's active roster and play Tuesday against the Canucks, Mark Masters of TSN.ca reports. Sandin is expected to skate with Zach Bogosian on the Maple Leafs' third pairing Tuesday. The 21-year-old blueliner picked up an assist in his lone appearance with the big club this season on Feb. 8 versus Vancouver.

Sandin (foot) practiced with AHL Toronto on Monday, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic Toronto reports. Sandin suffered a broken foot Feb. 15, and this was his first practice appearance since the injury. The 21-year-old should be back in the lineup soon, and if he shows enough promise, he could get a promotion to the big club. After all, the 2018 first-round pick played 28 NHL games last year, generating eight points.

As per a report from Sportsnet’s Chris Johnston, it sounds like Toronto Maple Leafs prospect Rasmus Sandin is out for several weeks with a foot injury. The defenseman got hurt blocking a shot during the Toronto Marlies season opener in Winnipeg on Monday night. Other reports have the defenseman listed as day-to-day, so it’s a news item worth keeping an eye on.

Sandin was assigned to AHL Toronto on Saturday. Sandin played just one game at the top level, recording an assist over five minutes of ice time. The 2018 first-round pick (28th overall) will continue his development by handling top-pairing minutes in the minors. He could arrive in the NHL as a full-time player as soon as next season.

Sandin was reassigned to the taxi squad Thursday, per CBS Sports. Sandin has yet to draw into a game for the Leafs this season. The 20-year-old defenseman will continue to practice with the team and provide organizational depth.
