Maple Leafs' Rasmus Sandin: Should play next weekend

Coach Sheldon Keefe said Sunday that the plan is to get Sandin some games at the end of the week, David Alter of Sports Illustrated reports.

Sandin won't play on Monday against Montreal, but he could be in the lineup for his preseason debut during a back-to-back set versus Detroit next weekend. Sandin took part in his first practice with the Leafs on Sunday after he signed a two-year deal Thursday to end his contract holdout.
