All he needs is to be signed by the HabsBoqvist about to become a top pairing offensive rhd soon.
Really want Sens to take a look with him then. Reunite Zub with Chabot, and run Sanderson-Boqvist.How To Make Boqvist Useful:
We'd sometimes do #2 (particularly when Werenski was out), but our prayers in #3 were never answered, and we didn't have enough shutdown guys to do #1. Get a better fit and some injury luck and he should be a useful contributor.
- Pair him with a shutdown guy.
- Give him #1 minutes on the power play.
- Pray that he isn't injured further.
funny or uninteresting? you be the judgeWhats funny is I just gave him 8M on NHL lol

Why do the Blue Jackets need to buy this guy out? Don’t they have like $20M in cap space?
Plus it gives the kid a chance to figure it out elsewhere. I’m sure Waddell called around but seems like no takers at a $1.3 mill cap hit and $1.6 mill salary.I think they want to fix their defense. They're letting go of the guys who aren't strong back there. Boqvist, Bean and Nylander all on the outs. I think Boqvist can find a nice situation and flourish (if healthy - which is an issue).
Do they give cap credits ? I thought they didn't give to the Oilers
Yep, a cap credit since it's an under 26 buyout at 1/3.

Interesting. I hope the Sharks inquire. We could use a RHD and I liked him as a prospect.
