I'm thinking of the speed of Jesper Bratt and Jesper Boqvist on a line together.
I like this pick, although it's a shame that Kole Lind didn't fall to our to hands. I think this pick (along with Zetterlund and Studenic) is extremely interesting. Lot's of skill, hopefully it will translate to the NHL.
I mean I like Bratt but I don't know if I'd go so far as to imagine these two together. I think Boqvist is a much better prospect. You may just be thinking of having two Jesper's on the same line
why stop at 2? Jesper Fast makes 3
It was a passing comment on a podcast but Jeff Marek was running through the back end of his mock draft and said, "At 28 I had Jesper Boqvist, who I still think should have gone in the first round."
Kid has talent.
Yep, high end.
It's why I was hoping we would snag him.
Let's hope he continues to improve and bulk up a little.
Honestly, could end up being a 2nd round heist.
Didn't realize just how efficient Boqvist was in the SHL this year in a limited role. He finished the year with a p/60 (all situations) of 2.76. Compare that with Lias Andersson who was at 1.8 p/60. We also know that Andersson got PP time since he had 2 pp goals. I doubt Boqvist got any. Not saying he's a better prospect, but very interesting at how good he was in his limited time there.
Meh, Andersson played 42 games scored 9 goals and added 10 assists compared to Boqvist's 16 gp's with zero goals and 6 assists.
Then factor in playoffs where Boqvist played 10 games and had 1 goal and zero assists, while Andersson scored 4 goals and added an assist in 16 playoff games.
Can't compare since they play in much different leagues.
Both players are promising.
Those were their #'s from the SweHL this season.

ANDERSSON was picked at 7 and is much more physically developed. Give Boquist some time to fill out before you dismiss him.
