Sandin first scorer after the Olympic break

Rasmus Sandin started the scoring for both the Swedish players and for his Washington team in tonight's home win after the Olympic break.

He didn't make the Swedish Olympic squad, but Rasmus Sandin seems to have used the break the right way. In the NHL restart last night, he scored Washington's opening goal in a 3-1 win over Philadelphia.

Sandin came with speed and met Hendrix Lapierre's well-placed pass and nursed the puck for a moment to find a gap behind Dan Vladar with just over a minute left in the second period.

The goal was Sandin's first home goal this season and the first Swedish point after the Olympic break.
