Sets up game-winner Sandin tallied an assist, a plus-1 rating and two shots during Thursday's 1-0 win over the Senators.

Impact Sandin made a terrific effort in the defensive zone before lugging the puck up the ice and feeding Alex Ovechkin for his 874th career NHL goal. The 24-year-old Swede has four goals and 18 goals in 45 games thus far in the 2024-25 campaign.

Chips in with helper Sandin notched an assist and added two hits in Thursday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Wild.

Impact Sandin has earned three assists over his last five outings. The defenseman has been over 20 minutes of ice time in the last three games, which is something that happened just three times over the prior 11 contests. Sandin is at 16 points, 41 shots on net, 47 hits, 60 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating through 38 outings this season. If he can stay in the top four and continue to see power-play time, he's a solid depth defenseman for fantasy.

Bags apple Monday Sandin registered a power-play assist while logging 19:32 of ice time during Monday's 4-1 loss to the Bruins.

Impact Sandin's helper snapped a nine-game scoring drought dating to the beginning of December. The 24-year-old Swede is enjoying a fine season overall with four goals, 14 points and a plus-15 rating in 34 games, but Sandin doesn't generate offense with enough consistency to draw the attention of most fantasy managers.

Two PP points against Jersey Sandin scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Saturday's 6-5 win over the Devils.

Impact Both points came in the second period as Washington struck three times in total with the man advantage. The power-play points were the first of the season for Sandin, while the multi-point performance was his first since Oct. 29. The 24-year-old has been a consistent contributor for the Caps though, and he's on pace for a career-best campaign with four goals and 13 points through 24 games while adding 43 blocked shots, 27 shots on net, 24 hits and a stunning plus-18 rating.

Dishes apple in loss Sandin registered a helper in Saturday's 3-2 loss to the Devils.

Impact Sandin was credited with the primary helper on Matt Roy's first goal of the season at 13:52 of the first period. Sandin has been productive in November -- the left-shot defenseman has produced one point in seven of 11 contests, and he had a five-game point streak between Nov. 8-17. Health permitting, Sandin is on his way to a career year, and he's up to three goals, eight assists and a plus-16 rating over 20 appearances.

Pockets assist in win Sandin notched an assist and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Golden Knights.

Impact Sandin's point streak is up to five games (three goals, two assists), despite him taking on a smaller role since Jakob Chychrun returned from injured reserve. Sandin kept the streak alive with a secondary helper on Jakub Vrana's second-period goal, which was the game-winner. Overall, Sandin has three goals, seven helpers, a plus-13 rating, 18 shots on net, 20 hits and 36 blocked shots through 17 contests.

Gets goal in win Sandin scored an empty-net goal on three shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.

Impact Sandin was able to close out the scoring with three seconds left in the game. The defenseman is on a roll with three goals and an assist over his last four contests. The 24-year-old is out of the power-play mix with Jakob Chychrun healthy again, but Sandin is still seeing top-four minutes, which allows him to make an impact at even strength. For the season, the Swedish blueliner has nine points, 18 shots on net, 20 hits, 36 blocked shots and a plus-11 rating through 16 appearances.

Scores again Saturday Sandin scored a goal on two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 8-1 win over the Blues.

Impact Sandin has scored in back-to-back games while adding a plus-4 rating in that span. As expected, he moved to the third pairing with the return of Jakob Chychrun from an upper-body injury, and it appears Sandin's power-play time is about to dry up as well. The 24-year-old defenseman has two goals, five assists, 14 shots on net, 18 hits, 34 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 14 appearances. He'll have some upside if he can see top-four minutes at even strength, but Sandin's smaller role when the Capitals are fully healthy is not very encouraging for fantasy purposes.

NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Puts away goal in loss Sandin scored a goal, blocked three shots and went plus-2 in Friday's 4-2 loss to the Penguins.

Impact Sandin's first goal of the season got the Capitals on the board in the first period. He's exceeded 20 minutes of ice time in five of his last six games, but his ice time could be in line to drop once Jakob Chychrun (upper body) returns, which could be as soon as Saturday versus the Blues. Sandin is up to six points, 12 shots on net, 34 blocked shots, 18 hits and a plus-7 rating over 13 contests. He should still be an important part of the Capitals' defense as well as a candidate for power-play minutes even when Chychrun is healthy.

Provides assist in win Sandin notched an assist, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 7-2 win over the Blue Jackets.

Impact Jakob Chychrun (upper body) landed on injured reserve Saturday, so Sandin is in line for a larger role. He saw 20:37 of ice time in the blowout win -- that's his second-highest total in 10 contests this season. Sandin has five helpers, 11 shots on net, 26 blocked shots, 12 hits and a plus-7 rating so far, and if he can stay on the second power-play unit, he should have an easier path to offense.

NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Puts up two helpers Sandin notched two assists, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Rangers.

Impact Sandin had multiple helpers for the second time in three games. He played a season-high 24:45 after Jakob Chychrun (upper body) left the contest in the first period. If Chychrun misses time, Sandin is the natural option to replace him on the power play, and he'd likely move up to a top-four role at even strength as well. Through eight outings, Sandin has four helpers, nine shots on net, 16 blocked shots, nine hits and a plus-5 rating from a third-pairing role.

OCTOBER 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Registers two assists Sandin recorded two assists, two shots on goal, five blocked shots and a plus-4 rating in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Flyers.

Impact Sandin hadn't gotten on the scoresheet prior to Wednesday, a slump that has seen him slip onto the third pairing. The 24-year-old blueliner broke through, helping out on goals by Taylor Raddysh and Nic Dowd in this contest. Through six games, Sandin has two helpers, five shots on net, six hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating. His offense is likely to be limited when he's not seeing power-play time -- John Carlson and Jakob Chychrun have had most of the minutes with the man advantage so far.

Set to join team Sandin (not injured related) is on his way to join his Washington teammates at training camp, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com on Tuesday.

Impact Sandin should be back on the ice with his teammates soon after missing the start of camp due to a work visa issue. The 24-year-old blueliner produced three goals, 23 points, 79 shots on net, 106 blocked shots and 75 hits across 68 regular-season contests in 2023-24. Sandin will likely occupy a top-four spot and see time on the second power-play unit during the upcoming campaign.

SEPTEMBER 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Absent from training camp Sandin is dealing with visa issues and will miss his second day of training camp, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports Friday.

Impact Sandin was limited to just 23 points last season after having notched 35 during the previous campaign split between Toronto and Washington. The offseason addition of Jakob Chychrun will create a competition for minutes with the No. 2 power-play unit, which could see Sandin's numbers further dip if he finds himself on the outside looking in. Still, a 20-point campaign is likely the floor for Sandin, giving him decent mid-range fantasy value.

SEPTEMBER 20, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Ready to rock Sandin (upper body) will return to action Sunday in Game 4 against the Rangers, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

Impact Sandin will be back in the lineup after missing the final five games of the regular season and the first three contests of the playoffs. He registered three goals, 23 points, 79 shots on net, 106 blocked shots and 75 hits in 68 appearances during the 2023-24 campaign. Sandin will replace Trevor van Riemsdyk (upper body) in Sunday's must-win matchup.

APRIL 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out Friday Sandin (upper body) will not play Friday against the Rangers, Stephen Whyno of the Associated Press reports.

Impact Sandin will miss his eighth consecutive game Friday. The 24-year-old was considered a game-time call Friday, so he has a good chance at returning Sunday for Game 4.

APRIL 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Could play Friday Sandin (upper body) will be a game-time decision Friday versus the Rangers, according to Tom Gulitti of NHL.com.

Impact Sandin has missed the last seven games, and finally was in a regular jersey at morning practice Friday. The blueliner had three goals and 23 points in 68 regular-season appearances. Look for Dylan McIlrath to come out of the lineup, should Sandin play in Game 3.
