Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Two-point effort in loss
Sandin had a goal and an assist in a 6-3 loss to Florida on Thursday.
Sandin cut the lead to 5-3 when he wired a long shot through a sea of bodies that fooled Daniil Tarasov. He has six points and 13 shots in 12 contests this season.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Nets goal in loss
Sandin scored a goal on three shots, blocked four shots and added two hits in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Penguins.
Sandin brought the Capitals back within a goal at 14:55 of the second period. The 25-year-old has a goal and an assist over two games since returning from an upper-body injury, so it looks like he's back to 100 percent. He offers decent category coverage in fantasy when his offense is rolling, but he's unlikely to stand out in any one area. Sandin has four points, seven shots on net, 18 hits, 15 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through nine appearances.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Earns helper in return
Sandin registered an assist in Wednesday's 6-1 win over the Blues.
Sandin missed five games due to an upper-body injury before returning Wednesday. He was a little sheltered with just 16:58 of ice time, but the Capitals can afford to manage his minutes with the strength of their blue line. The 25-year-old has three helpers, four shots on net, 16 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over eight appearances.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Good to return
Sandin (upper body) is set to make his return against St. Louis on Wednesday, per Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network.
Sandin will be activated off injured reserve to accommodate his return. He has two assists, four shots, 16 hits and 10 blocks in seven appearances this season. After missing Washington's past five games, Sandin is likely to serve on the third pairing and receive some power-play ice time Wednesday. Declan Chisholm is projected to be a healthy scratch as a result of Sandin's return.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Won't travel to Dallas
Sandin (upper body) will not make the trip for Tuesday's road game versus the Stars, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Sandin will miss his third straight game due to his upper-body issue. Prior to getting hurt, the 25-year-old blueliner was still looking for his first goal of the season, though he's registered only four shots over seven games, which doesn't make it easy for him to find the back of the net.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Remains out Saturday
Sandin (upper body) won't play Saturday versus Ottawa, per Sammi Silber of The Hockey News.
Sandin also missed Friday's 5-1 win over Columbus. He has two assists in seven appearances this year. His next opportunity to play will come Tuesday in Dallas.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Won't play Friday
Sandin (upper body) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Blue Jackets, Tarik El-Bashir of Monumental Sports Network reports.
Sandin is considered day-to-day due to his upper-body injury, and while he isn't expected to have a lengthy absence, he won't travel with the Capitals ahead of Friday's matchup in Columbus. Whether he'll be available for Saturday's home game against the Senators remains to be seen.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Managing upper-body injury
Sandin didn't participate in Thursday's practice session due to an upper-body injury, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports.
Sandin logged a season-low 15:01 of ice time during Tuesday's 4-1 win over Seattle, and he's apparently dealing with an injury afterward. The Capitals have an upcoming back-to-back set, and it's not yet clear whether Sandin will be available Friday against the Blue Jackets or Saturday against the Senators. If Sandin is held out of game action, Declan Chisholm and Dylan McIlrath are candidates to enter the lineup.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Adds assist Friday
Sandin notched an assist and two hits in Friday's 5-1 win over the Wild.
The helper was Sandin's first point in five games this season. His ice time has been up early -- he's averaging 19:45 per game so far, 34 seconds better than last year when he put up a career-high 30 points in 82 regular-season outings. This year, he's produced two shots on net, 11 hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. He's never been a high-volume shooter from the blue line, which could inhibit his scoring production.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Nabs helper in loss
Sandin provided an assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Canadiens in Game 3.
Sandin earned his first point in three outings this postseason. He's added three shots on net, nine blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. The 25-year-old defenseman has a top-four role while seeing time on the second power-play unit. He won't be a leader on offense for the Capitals, but he's defensively steady and can chip in some secondary scoring.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Gets to 30-point mark
Sandin logged a power-play assist and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Islanders.
Sandin has two helpers over the last four games, though he's also gone minus-6 in that span. The defenseman reached the 30-point mark Tuesday, a level he's achieved in two of the last three campaigns. He did it with four goals, 26 helpers, 77 shots on net, 119 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating over 81 appearances.

Sandin notched an assist, two blocked shots and a minus-3 rating in Thursday's 5-4 shootout win over the Hurricanes.
Sandin has eight assists over 19 games since the start of March. The 25-year-old continues to fill a top-four role and has picked up power-play time on the second unit. For the season, he's at 29 points, 77 shots on net, 113 blocked shots, 91 hits and a plus-18 rating over 78 appearances. He has up to four more chances to get to the 30-point mark for the second time in his career.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Sends assist in Saturday's win
Sandin logged an assist, three shots on goal, two hits and a plus-4 rating in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Panthers.
Sandin has had a strong March as a complementary scorer, earning six assists and a plus-6 rating, as well as 11 hits and 16 blocked shots, over 11 appearances. The 25-year-old defenseman continues to play alongside John Carlson on the top pairing, though the Capitals' blue line is one of the strongest in the league from top to bottom. Sandin is up to 27 points, 71 shots on net, 82 hits, 101 blocked shots and a plus-24 rating across 70 appearances.

Sandin logged an assist and three blocked shots in Tuesday's 7-4 win over the Ducks.
Sandin has a helper in four of the last five contests, and he's also gone plus-1 with 10 blocks in that span. The 25-year-old blueliner is up to 25 points, 64 shots on net, 96 blocked shots, 75 hits and a plus-19 rating over 65 appearances this season. He fills a bit of a versatile role for the Capitals, and he chips in a little across the board without being a standout in any given category.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Picks up helper in win
Sandin logged an assist, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.
Sandin has a helper in two of the last three contests. He's been in a top-four role for much of the season, but he's been less of a factor on offense than John Carlson or Jakob Chychrun. Sandin has 23 points, matching his 68-game output from the 2023-24 regular season, and he's added 63 shots on net, 73 hits, 93 blocked shots and a plus-18 rating over 63 appearances this campaign.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Dishes two helpers
Sandin tallied two assists, a plus-2 rating and three blocked shots during Saturday's 8-3 win over the Penguins.
Sandin has recorded 20-plus points in three consecutive seasons following Saturday's two-point effort. The Swedish blueliner has emerged as a stalwart top-four defenseman during his tenure with the Capitals. However, Sandin must find the scoresheet more regularly to have much fantasy appeal in standard formats.

Capitals' Rasmus Sandin: Bags apple
Sandin registered an assist and two shots during Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Panthers.
Sandin ended a seven-game point drought by notching a helper on Andrew Mangiapane's first-period tally. The 24-year-old defenseman has been playing with John Carlson on the top pairing in recent weeks, though a significant boost to Sandin's fantasy production has yet to materialize as a result of the promotion.

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

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