Getting Sandin signed now gives him the best chance of a good start to the season, as he will still have time to get up and running in training camp. Getting him to sign a two-year deal is even better, as the Maple Leafs will secure another relatively cheap year from the young defender. It is Liljegren that is the comparison for this deal, as he signed the exact same two-year $2.8MM contract earlier this summer. While the young defenseman has been worried about his place with the organization, there is a massive opportunity in front of him. The two sides [have agreed to a two-year](https://www.nhl.com/mapleleafs/news/maple-leafs-sign-defenceman-rasmus-sandin-to-a-two-year-contract/c-335900646), $2.8MM contract ($1.4MM AAV) which will pay Sandin $1.2MM this season and $1.6MM next season. Sandin will get a slightly higher qualifying offer, given the $1.6MM salary in 2023-24, but this is basically the contract that was offered to him months ago.

Maple Leafs Sign Sandin to Two-Year Extension (The Hockey News)

The Toronto Maple Leafs and Rasmus Sandin ended their stalemate, agreeing to terms on a two-year contract extension.

Of course, Sandin rejected that pitch at the time, believing he could hold out for a slightly higher payday given his pedigree and importance to the organization. As the saying goes, though, you can never have too much depth. But after watching both Jordie Benn and Carl Dahlstrom go down with potentially long-term injuries in last night's preseason tilt versus the Montreal Canadiens, Sandin and his camp opted to take advantage of the opportunity instead.

The onus falls on Sandin to go out and snatch it. Veteran Jake Muzzin (back) has yet to participate in a full team practice. “We appreciate Rasmus and his camp taking that step today to get this contract done and allow him the time to ready for the final preseason games. The deal is fair market value for both sides. He won’t miss a paycheque. “As stated throughout this process, Rasmus is a key member of the present and future of (our) team, and we are excited today that he is en route to Toronto to ready for Opening Night in Montreal.”

Consensus Wrong: Oilers Should Be Favoured Over Maple Leafs (The Hockey Writers)

Most betting sites have the Toronto Maple Leafs as the most favoured Canadian team to win the Stanley Cup in 2022-23 and the second or third most likely in ...

Edmonton has leapfrogged the Maple Leafs in playoff success and expectations should have them winning the Stanley Cup first. A below-average SV% and GAA like that is not a recipe for success, even if the Maple Leafs can score a lot of goals to balance it out. The Maple Leafs have lost in the first round six seasons in a row. The Oilers have gotten over the playoff hump and are looking to push further with a bolstered lineup. Campbell comes over from the Maple Leafs after being an All-Star last season, and Skinner has been pushing for a spot on the team for a while now. It doesn’t matter whether the Oilers or Maple Leafs finish first in the NHL or are the last team to reach the playoffs; a team can win from any seed. The Maple Leafs will also The Oilers also had some players retire and made an important trade to dump salary for two rookies to challenge for roster spots this season. The Oilers have two of the best players in the world. The two Maple Leafs have a combined two Rocket Richard Trophies, one Hart Trophy, and one Ted Lindsay, all coming from Matthews. The Oilers have now proven they can show up when it counts in the playoffs. He may not have won the Hart Trophy last season, but that’s because it has been a long time since a player has scored 60 goals in a season, and the honour went to Auston Matthews.

“Let's not rule out a line of defence from going out there up front,” he smiled. He’s run the power play from the top in a five-forward type of look in junior. I think he’d be considered an offensive defenceman and be able to contribute in that way. “Players move around now and forwards end up having to cover and play on defence far more frequently, probably, than in the history of our game. “Naturally, players younger and younger are gonna start to come up with those type of skill sets. Obviously, the power play he plays up there quite a bit.
