The Toronto Maple Leafs traded Rasmus Sandin to the Washington Capitals for fellow defenceman Erik Gustafsson and a 2023 first-round draft pick on Tuesday.

The 22-year-old registered 10 goals and 48 points in 140 regular-season appearances with the Leafs. He scored once in five playoff contests.In 370 career games with Chicago, Calgary, Philadelphia, Montreal and Washington, the 30-year-old has put up 39 goals and 187 points. He's added eight points in 31 playoff contests.

Gustafsson, who was originally drafted by Edmonton in the fourth round in 2012, joins a Toronto roster that's been significantly reworked by general manager Kyle Dubas in recent weeks ahead of the NHL's March 3 trade deadline as the Leafs look to advance in the post-season for the first time since 2004.

This will be another first round loss. Dubas is trading away Toronto’s future to save his own job. He will be gone.

Need to get rid of Holl and Kerfoot.
