2024 Fantasy Outlook
A limited role in his lone year in Boston did Boqvist no favors, as he produced just 14 points over 47 regular-season contests while averaging 11:09 of ice time per game. He was not tendered a qualifying offer, but he found a landing spot in Florida in free agency, coincidentally joining his brother Adam with the Panthers as the defending champions restocked their depth. The elder Boqvist, Jesper, is likely to once again fill a bottom-six role, and it seems he'll have a better chance of sticking in the lineup with the Panthers. Still, he's not going to get impactful minutes to produce offense and he can be left undrafted in fantasy. Read Past Outlooks

Eight points in last 10 games

Boqvist scored a goal Saturday in a 3-0 win over the Ducks.
ANALYSIS
Boqvist drove in on John Gibson at 11:22 of the second period and scored his career-high 11th goal on a wrister that trickled through the netminder. He has six goals, two assists and 17 shots in his last 10 games after putting up 11 points in his first 34 outings. Couple this recent uptick in offense with his 102 hits in 44 games, and Boqvist is suddenly relevant in formats that count these secondary categories.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2020
Boqvist's 10 goals and 21 points a season ago were nearly identical to the 10 goals and 23 points he managed in 2021-22, but the production came in 14 additional games. Unable to carve out a top-six role on a loaded Devils team, Boqvist failed to make a consistent impact. New Jersey declined to make the Swede a qualifying offer, allowing him to ink a one-year, $775,000 deal with Boston in free agency. Boqvist is still just 24 years old, but the odds are against him turning into a significant contributor with his new club, though the Bruins' suddenly thin center depth could help him stay in the lineup regularly.
Boqvist had a tough season in 2021-22. He missed time due to both injury and illness and even spent eight games with New Jersey's AHL affiliate in Utica. He ultimately played in 56 games with the Devils, posting 10 goals and 23 points. Boqvist will play nearly this entire upcoming season at age 24, so there's still hope for him, but New Jersey has shown no inclination to play him in a top-six or power-play role, severely dampening any future potential the Swede may possess. A change of scenery may be best for all parties concerned at this stage.
Boqvist dressed in 35 games for the Devils last season, finishing with an unimpressive four points, all goals. The 2017 second-round pick will hope to make more of an impact this time around, though an influx of rookie forwards competing for roster spots could push him out of the lineup altogether. He was lauded for his high-end skill as a prospect in Sweden, but the Boqvist buzz has faded significantly following his forgettable rookie season.
