Good deal for the Leafs. Surprised Sandin ended up just accepting a deal he could have taken months ago, but if he was truly mostly concerned with opportunity, the injuries the Leafs have sustained already to their blue line means he's going to get plenty of ice to work with early on. Leafs will likely have some LTIR space early in the year, and if Sandin performs they can either carry a minimum roster or trade Holl rather than make him a $2M 7th D.

can't wait to see what kind of cap wizardry it's gonna take to squeeze this one into the final roster

unless this is gonna be another one of those sign-and-trade things


They are almost $2.9M over the cap based on a 23 man roster, so if they go with a 20 man roster they could get under (depending on who gets sent down), but in reality the Leafs likely go into LTIR to start the season with the rash of injuries, which gives them time to evaluate a few players, and if necessary I think they could move Justin Holl if he ends up settling as the 7th D.

Wait, what about all those ACGMs that said it'll be $4 million per year ?

From day 1 after Lilypad signed I've stuck to my quote of an equal signing, majority of you fools wanted to troll my belief.

I hate saying it, but I'm right, like always.

After all the offer sheet bull****, injuries to half the Dcore, he signs the same deal offered to Liljegren.

This should have happened months ago, this was always the right deal for him. His agent, Gross, is a noodle.

Happy to have him in the fold. Leafs need him now more than ever.

Again, this is a guy who has not posted a five-on-five Corsi-for percentage lower than 52.41% or a scoring chances-for percentage lower than 52.66% in each of his three NHL seasons in addition to a five-on-five expected goals-for percentage of least 55.05% in each of his first two full ones.


As I've said here what feels like a million times.... this was never about money.

Rielly practicing on the right side today may shed some light as to why Sandin decided to sign.

Dubas is the best negotiator in the NHL confirmed!


You say that until AM walks as a free agent getting paid for his RFA years with zero years of UFA years being paid for.

Enjoy the circus next off season and season will bring with the AM drama.

Hague has got to be pissed that Sandin signed this. RIP to his chances at getting Vegas to pay up

Not bitter at all. Just realistic. Open minded and to the point.
