Panthers' Jesper Boqvist: Misses practice Monday
Rotowire
Boqvist wasn't on the ice Monday, raising doubts regarding his availability against Winnipeg on Tuesday, Colby Guy of The Palm Beach Post reports.
According to head coach Paul Maurice, Boqvist is "in pretty good shape," and is expected to participate in Tuesday's game-day skate. If the forward is unable to play, look for Jonah Gadjovich to rejoin the lineup after being a healthy scratch versus Winnipeg on Saturday.

Panthers' Jesper Boqvist: Scores in loss
Rotowire
Boqvist scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and logged two hits in Thursday's 6-2 loss to the Devils.
Boqvist has played on the second line at even strength over the last two games, even with Sam Bennett returning from a one-game absence Thursday. The increased role looks to be helping Boqvist's chances on offense. He's now at three goals, two assists, 19 shots on net, 46 hits and a minus-4 rating over 17 appearances. The 26-year-old is better suited for bottom-six minutes, but if he can get his offense going, he could be an option for fantasy managers in deeper formats thanks to his physicality.

Panthers' Jesper Boqvist: Scores in Monday's win
Rotowire
Boqvist scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Monday's 5-2 win over the Sabres.
Boqvist stayed on the third line with a move to the wing after Aleksander Barkov's return from a lower-body injury moved Anton Lundell down the lineup. The goal ended a four-game dry spell for Boqvist. The 25-year-old forward is unlikely to see anything more than bottom-six minutes when the Panthers have all of their top forwards available. He's produced four points, 10 shots on net, 30 hits and a minus-2 rating over 11 contests this season.

Panthers' Jesper Boqvist: Tallies in overtime loss
Rotowire
Boqvist scored a goal and added two hits in Thursday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Canucks.
Boqvist's first goal as a Panther came at 11:53 of the first period, just 11 seconds after Teddy Blueger opened the scoring for the Canucks. Injuries have pressed Boqvist into a larger role than expected early in the year. He's held his own with three points, two shots on net, 11 hits and a plus-1 rating across six appearances, but he's best suited for bottom-six usage. He'll likely drop down the lineup again once Aleksander Barkov (lower body) and Matthew Tkachuk (illness) are able to return.

Boqvist had one goal over his last 11 regular-season appearances. Beyond that the 25-year-old was limited to 14 points, 51 shots on net and 71 hits over 47 contests this season. He'll likely see most of his minutes in a fourth-line role during the playoffs, but Boqvist is not guaranteed a spot in the lineup.

Rotowire

Boqvist has two points over his last three games, accounting for all of his offense in seven contests at the NHL level this season. He set up the first of Charlie McAvoy's two tallies in this game. Boqvist has been listed on the top line recently, but he rarely sees much more than middle-six usage -- his 13:59 of ice time Saturday was his season high.
