The Capitals announced Wednesday that Rasmus Sandin had a surgical procedure to address an ACL tear in his right knee.
Sandin, 26, sustained the injury on April 11 in a game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Capitals’ third last of the season.
The Swede posted five goals and 24 assists in 73 games in 2025-26.
According to the team, Sandin’s return-to-play timeline will depend on his progress, but the typical recovery time for the surgery is six to nine months.
Drafted 29th overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2018, Sandin has 145
points (25 goals and 120 assists) over 382 career NHL games with the Leafs and Capitals.
