Adam Boqvist - NHL News & Rumors

Goals in consecutive games Boqvist scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Penguins.

Impact Boqvist has scored in back-to-back games since he replaced Uvis Balinskis on the Panthers' third pairing. The 24-year-old Boqvist had his tally Tuesday assisted by Matthew Tkachuk and Jesper Boqvist, marking the first time the two Boqvists have featured on the same goal in a regular-season game. This season, the younger brother has two goals, two assists, 16 shots on net and a minus-4 rating across 12 appearances, but it appears he's gaining traction to stay in the lineup.

Draws in, scores goal Boqvist scored a goal on three shots in Saturday's 6-0 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Boqvist got his first goal of the season during a four-goal burst over a span of 4:42 in the third period. The 24-year-old defenseman hadn't played much in November, playing in just one of the first 13 games of the month. He replaced Uvis Balinskis in the lineup Saturday and could compete with him moving forward. Boqvist has three points, 14 shots on net, seven blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 11 appearances. His upside comes from offense, but he's unlikely to help in fantasy if he can't stay in the lineup.

Limited role in November Boqvist was scratched for the 14th time in 15 games when he sat out Friday's 6-3 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Injuries to forwards and a tight cap afforded Boqvist the opportunity to dress as a seventh defenseman for much of October. That role has been closed off with the Panthers enjoying fairly good health in November, and Nate Schmidt has played well enough to keep Boqvist in the press box. Through 10 appearances this season, Boqvist has two assists, 11 shots on net, six blocked shots and a minus-6 rating, though he saw power-play time when he was in the lineup.

NOVEMBER 30 • ROTOWIRE

Sets up power-play marker Boqvist registered a power-play assist in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Islanders.

Impact Boqvist continues to serve as a power-play specialist on the first unit. Both of his points through nine appearances have been power-play helpers, though he's seeing limited ice time overall (11:34 per game) as the Panthers have been forced to role seven defensemen due to a lack of healthy forwards. Boqvist has added 10 shots on net, five blocked shots and a minus-5 rating, and he may be an occasional healthy scratch once the team is closer to full strength.

Logs power-play assist Boqvist recorded a power-play assist and two PIM in Monday's 4-3 win over the Bruins.

Impact Boqvist's helper was his first point of the season, though he has routinely seen power-play time when in the lineup. The 24-year-old defenseman missed one game after suffering a facial injury when struck by a puck. Boqvist has added five shots on net and a minus-2 rating, but if he remains on the top power-play unit, he should provide noticeable upside on offense.

Back in action Saturday Boqvist (face) will return to the lineup Saturday against Buffalo, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Boqvist missed just one game after he was struck in the face by a puck in Florida's opener. The 24-year-old Boqvist figures to fill a bottom-pairing role for the Panthers, though he could see some time on the man advantage.

OCTOBER 12 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out for Thursday Boqvist (face) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Ottawa, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

Impact Boqvist exited Tuesday's Opening Night matchup against the Bruins after taking a puck to the face, and he'll be unavailable for at least one game. However, head coach Paul Maurice said Thursday that the team is feeling good about Boqvist playing Saturday against Buffalo. Nate Schmidt is slated to make his season debut in Boqvist's absence.

OCTOBER 10 • ROTOWIRE

Leaves season opener Boqvist (face) won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Bruins after taking a puck to the face.

Impact Boqvist was hit by a clearing attempt in the first period and was unable to return. The 24-year-old defenseman has a lengthy injury history, having never played in more than 52 games in a season. Boqvist was set to fill a spot on the No. 1 power-play unit, but Aaron Ekblad will likely take over that role during Boqvist's absence.

OCTOBER 9 • ROTOWIRE

Inks one-year deal Boqvist agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Florida on Tuesday.

Impact Boqvist becomes the second member of the Panthers' defensive depth to join the club after getting bought out this offseason, though Nate Schmidt figures to play a bigger role for the club. While Boqvist could certainly spend some time in the minors, the club is buying low on a 23-year-old, eighth-overall pick that has 209 games of NHL experience. Whether Boqvist makes the Opening Night roster will depend heavily on his training camp and preseason performance, likely needing to edge out Uvis Balinskis or Tobias Brojnfot for a spot.

JULY 9 • ROTOWIRE

Buyout incoming According to CapFriendly, Boqvist (upper body) was placed on unconditional waivers by Columbus on Sunday for the purpose of a contract buyout.

Impact Boqvist had one more season remaining on his three-year, $7.8 million contract. He recorded one goal and 10 points in 35 appearances during the 2023-24 campaign after providing five markers and 24 points across 46 outings in 2022-23. Boqvist sat out the final 16 games this past campaign due to injury, but his placement on unconditional waivers means he has a clean bill of health ahead of next season.

JUNE 30 • ROTOWIRE

APRIL 16 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out indefinitely Boqvist (upper body) is considered out indefinitely ahead of Thursday's clash with the Islanders.

Impact Boqvist has already missed the Jackets' last nine contests and could be in danger of being sidelined for the remainder of the season.

David Jiricek figures to jump back into the lineup versus New York and possibly beyond.

Exits Thursday's game Boqvist sustained an upper-body injury and won't return to Thursday's game versus the Senators, Jeff Svoboda of the Blue Jackets' official site reports.

Impact Boqvist was hurt on a hit in the first period and ruled out prior to the first intermission, which is not encouraging. The 23-year-old defenseman has already missed significant time with upper-body and shoulder injuries this season and in his career. The Blue Jackets' next game is Saturday versus the Sharks, but it's safe to assume the team won't rush Boqvist back given its poor position in the standings.
