Blackhawks prospect Adam Boqvist is not suffering concussion-like symptoms after he was checked into the glass Friday while playing for the London Knights in the OHL, reports Scott Powers of The Athletic.
Boqvist, who was selected No. 8 overall in this year’s NHL draft, was scratched from the Knights’ lineup for their game against Kingston on Saturday. According to the report, he was kept out of action for precautionary reasons.
Concussions were one of the concerns about Boqvist before the draft, after he suffered two during the 2017-18 season.
