Linus Sandin that is. My favourite Maple Leafs defence prospect’s big brother is going to Philly. > Swedish forward Linus Sandin intends to sign with the Philadelphia Flyers -- although he can't officially do so until the NHL finalizes new international transfer agreements. > > Sandin was one of the SHL's top scorers with 19 goals for HV71 last season and had multiple NHL offers. > > — Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) [April 23, 2020](https://twitter.com/reporterchris/status/1253431342185902084?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) Linus was never drafted, but has played pro-hockey in the SHL for several seasons. He will go to the Flyers with some high expectations next season. He’s got some moves. Chicago Steel jersey sighting! It’s not the first time the Flyers have had the brother of one of the Leafs players on their team. They picked up Luke Schenn’s brother Brayden in a crazy blockbuster Paul Holmgren deal in 2011 that [blew up their whole team](https://www.broadstreethockey.com/2011/6/23/2240016/blow-it-up-mike-richards-traded-to-l-a-for-brayden-schenn-and-wayne?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) and, in turn, led to one of the biggest trade wins for the Leafs in recent memory. --- #### Related [Leafs trade Luke Schenn to Flyers for James van Riemsdyk](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/leafs-trade-luke-schenn-to-flyers-for-james-van-riemsdyk/) --- Happiest day of my life, folks. Maybe the Leafs can hoodwink the Flyers and pull this off again? Let them reunite the Sandins for JvR and a first? Pick up the phone, Kyle; my basement needs a tenant. #### Other News Zach Hyman has been busy writing during the NHL pause. He talks here about how and why he wrote his first children’s storybook, and his progress on a new one. Speaking of Hyman, he’s going to be representing the Maple Leafs in the NHL’s Player Gaming Challenge which starts on April 30th. > The NHL Player Gaming Challenge presented by [@Honda](https://twitter.com/Honda?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) will pit nearly 50 players in head-to-head series of [@EASPORTSNHL](https://twitter.com/EASPORTSNHL?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) to support [@CDCFound](https://twitter.com/CDCFound?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com).
