Jesper Boqvist Notches Three Points in Game 3 Win
Florida Panthers center Jesper Boqvist stepped up big time for the team in Saturday's Game 3 against the Carolina Hurricanes, notching three points with one goal and two assists in a 6-2 win. Replacing Sam Reinhart (lower body) in the lineup and playing for the first time in four games, Boqvist felt right at home on the first line, tying Aleksander Barkov for the game high with a plus-four rating. He also threw his body around a bit to record three hits. Reinhart's caliber makes him a tough player to replace, but Boqvist has impressed with his recent performances, tallying two goals and three assists in his last three appearances. The Swedish forward found his scoring touch after starting the postseason with a seven-game stretch without any points.
