Washington Capitals defenseman Rasmus Sandin is recovering from surgery to repair his torn right ACL.

The 26-year-old Swede sustained the knee injury in a 6-3 win at Pittsburgh on April 11.

The typical timeline for a recovery from ACL surgery is an estimated six to nine months.

Sandin finished the season with 29 points (five goals, 24 assists) and a plus-4 rating in 73 games. He was third on the team with 127 blocks.

A first-round pick by Toronto in 2018, Sandin has 145 points (25 goals, 120 assists) through 382 career games with the Maple Leafs and Capitals.
