The Bruins have recalled Boqvist as a result of news from earlier today that Milan Lucic will be out week-to-week with a lower-body injury. Boqvist, who will be an option to slide onto the Bruins fourth line, played 70 games with the New Jersey Devils last season, tallying 21 points (10G / 11A).
Boqvist had 10 goals, 11 assists, 67 SOG, two PIMs and a +8 plus/minus through 70 games with New Jersey in 2022-23 and has signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with Boston. The 24-year-old centre was selected by New Jersey in the second-round of the 2017 NHL Draft (36th overall) and has collected 28 goals and 55 points across 189 games in four seasons in New Jersey.
Boqvist played 10:19 TOI in Game 1, picking up one SOG across 16 shifts but will be a healthy scratch as he takes a seat for Yegor Sharangovich ahead of Game 2. The 24-year-old closed out his regular season with 10 goals, 11 assists, 67 SOG and a +8 plus/minus through 70 games and will hope to draw back into the lineup soon.
Boqvist missed the Devils' previous two games due to an undisclosed injury but is expected to return Thursday as the team takes on the New York Rangers. The 24-year-old has eight goals, eight assists, 59 SOG, two PIMs and a +3 plus/minus through 62 games prior to his injury.
Boqvist suffered an upper-body injury in Florida on November 18th and was moved to IR on Thursday. Moving Boqvist to IR opened up a roster spot to claim Nathan Bastian off of waivers from Seattle. Boqvist is eligible to come off of IR whenever he is healthy.
Boqvist has had a great start to the season in the AHL, ranking second on Utica with eight points (2G / 6A) in seven games. He'll be on the ice for Tuesday's morning skate and could draw into the Devils lineup for his season debut. He has scored eight goals with three assists (11 points) in 63 career NHL games.
Boqvist will replace Nick Merkely, who was sent the other way. Boqvist did not record a point while playing 14:06 ATOI in his first four games of the season.
Nick Merkley is coming up to make his season debut on Sunday so they send Boqvist to the taxi squad because he doesn't need waivers. Boqvist has yet to register a point with just two shots on goal in four games this season.
Boqvist played with the Devils on Tuesday but will go to the AHL to help Binghamton make the playoffs. He has eight points (5G / 3A) in 15 AHL games this season.
Boqvist will be replaced by Connor Carrick, who will play for the first time since mid-October and will dress as a seventh defenseman.
