The New Jersey Devils started the preseason with a bunch of talented prospects, but Jesper Boqvist was one we were especially excited about. Devils fans have a really good situation with this Swedish magician of a forward. He always seems to be a faster, smoother moving version of Marcus Johansson.
Boqvist is a player that has a lot of upside, and he could prove to have more upside than fellow Swede Jesper Bratt. There is so much skill and depth from the four lines the Devils have now before the final cuts that Boqvist seems to already have made the team due to his pre-season showings.
