Jesper Boqvist's next contract

[Sticksandsun]

Looks to be another Bill Zito homerun signing.
JB just set a career high in goals and well on his way to new career high in assists and points as well.
He's 27 in October but just curious what everyone thinks he will get on his next deal if it's with Florida.

Can we get player comparables in age/contract/production and his analytics or player card as well?
I'd say he's easily our best add this year.

12 goals, 20 points in 47 GP
13 minutes TOI, 109 hits, 17 blocks, 12 PIMs, 53 SOG, 22.6 S%

I chose 2x2.25, but I would have selected 2x2.5 if available

 

[Sticksandsun]

His first 23 GP, 3 goals and 5 points and -7
His next 24 GP, 9 goals and 15 points and +8

Those 9 goals have him 3rd behind Reinhart and Tkachuk and those 15 points are 6th best among all players on the team in that time frame.

His shooting % is crazy high right now but maybe they give him a bump in minutes next year.
I really think he could replace Rodrigues if we ship his cap and contract out the door.

Added an other option and added change vote if need be.

If Erod can get $3M, Boqvist probably gets similar with a higher cap if he continues his good play.

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

If we have to keep Adam, take away 1mil from Jesper

Voted 3x2.5

I honestly have no idea, I'm terrible at guessing contract values.

I think the interesting factor here is that his finishing has been incredible... 23% is about 10% higher than his average over the past three seasons. On the other hand, he's taking more shots this year (by a good margin) and getting more chances, so I don't think his production is a total fluke.

The real value of the player here seems to me to be that he's a great fit for the team. He forechecks hard, he plays with a bit of an edge, and he's defensively responsible.

Anyone have his defense analysis from last year?

 

[Dread Clawz]

If we're acquiring a RD with term, then we're likely losing him in FA, or Ekblad.

Can't see them cutting ties with Bennett.

Feeling like they will try to keep both. Benny gets a raise, Ekblad takes a haircut.

Hopefully. They are both crucial pieces imo. Really, what happens at the deadline will dictate a lot .

Exactly. The deadline will tell us what happens with Benny and Ek. Remember that teams have $3.5M in cap space above what was anticipated to play with next year as well which will make it a lot easier to keep players with term and a lot harder to sign UFAs.

Some analysts are forecasting McD will get $18M per from Toronno, who will then ditch Marner and Tavares.

I believe the $18M part of it, mostly.

 

[Sticksandsun]

That 18 mil in Toranna is more like 15 mil in Flarhduh

Mcdavid ain’t leaving Edmonton. There is no way Draisaitl would’ve signed in that shithole.

He's actually signing with Florida. Him and Bennett are good friends. Bennett will re-sign and McDavid will join us. Get red for the dynasty!

3x3

This guy fits in really well I think, great addition to the lineup...shame about his brother though.

 

[Gentle Man]

I was at 3 x 3

I am down to let him walk because he sucks now that Bro Bro is gone

 

[Great8Cam]

Jesper is a 4th line guy

 

[FrolikFan67]

he’s played very well this regular season and I was impressed by game coming into the season so it doesn’t surprise me that he’s excelling. My only thing is I want to see how he plays in the playoffs. I know he scored that OT winner against us last year, but my only gripe I have with his game is he can get bumped off the puck fairly easily and his board work can be pretty weak. Let him play out the entire season + playoffs before coming up with a number but most of the numbers here seem like fair estimates based on what he’s done to this point.
