Boqvist was forced to go separate roads with big brother Jesper, left in Florida Panthers, the other day. But he was careful and pressed the receipt to 1-1 for his new team at the end of the second period. He hit a return since Mathew Barzal failed to outwit Tampa’s goalkeeper for the day, Andrei Vasilevskiy.
“It spins a little in my head, I came to town half -two tonight,” Boqvist told reporters after the match.
– A crazy day, but when you go out on the ice you don’t think much, you want to fight and play for the team.
New teammate Simon Holmström also got an assist for that goal and he got another for the foreplay to New York’s decisive 3-2 by extension.
