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