Maple Leafs coach Sheldon Keefe wants Rasmus Sandin to get it right.
“He has done that before at different times. We’ll see how it all shakes out.Neither Sandin nor Muzzin, who continues to work his way back from discomfort in his back, will play when the Leafs head to Montreal to face the Canadiens in a pre-season game on Monday night.
Sandin wound up signing a similar two-year contract to what Timothy Liljegren signed in June, as both have an annual average salary of $1.4-million US. “It was definitely stressful. From the beginning of the summer, I thought it was going to be done every single day and every single week, but now I’m here and that’s the most important thing.”
Sandin bulked up during the summer, saying he weighs 194 pounds, up from 178 that is his present listing on the Leafs’ web site. That said, he does not expect to simply shove his way into a job.
