Jesper Boqvist

He opens the scoring tonight, hell of a shot.

What a play from Jesper Boquist to start.

It's a draw three defenders with the puck, kick it down to Anthony Mantha, and then what a shot from Luke Hughes, an all-world shot from him, if you will.

You know, again, and look, you had the tweet.

You know, he's not only providing the offense, but, you know, the reason why he's getting those opportunities is because he's forechecking well, he's playing defense well, and, you know, again, like I said, those rookie mistakes that we saw early on are starting to become less and less and less.

I mean, tonight he was pretty – pretty flawless right he he didn't really make any mistakes at all so that was great to see um and then he gets a couple of great scoring chances uh under his belt he sets up a couple scoring chances as well um you know again like i know i've said this before i'll say it again he's like a mini jack hughes fourth line guy like it's it's it's crazy you know it's it's so cool to see that you know he's he's a player who can do it on both sides of the puck and then when he does have the puck on his stick i mean it The Devils have the luxury of being able to, you know, outplay a bottom six opponent in the offensive zone just because of the skill set that he has.

You know, not to mention how good of a line he's playing on, too, with Cody Glass and Jesper Boquist.

They were great tonight.

But the second period, Scott Lawton gets a second from Adrian Kempe and Andre Lee at the 15-57 mark, and the Kings go up 1-0.

Then Anthony Mantha gets his third from Boquist, his second, and Rodriguez, his third, to tie the game at the 18-43 mark.

That's how it ended in the third period.

Then we go to the third, and this was the defining one.

Florida is just happy that he had such a big role in winning a Stanley Cup.

And same thing with Boquist.

Like, so this is the one... move that's full of hatred and Quinn Hughes would be the other, right? Like Minnesota fans would hate Quinn Hughes.

Just like we hated Zach for easy.

I just feel like it comes down to guys like Anthony Manta.

What are you going to get from Anthony Manta this season? Yes, we're Boquist.

Evan Rodriguez, you know what you're going to get from Jack Hughes.

You know what you're going to get from Nico Heischer.

I'd be shocked if those three get split up, right? How about...

No, Boquist, though, too.

I just want to mention Boquist has been so good, so good since they've gotten him back.

And I know that even when they had to make that decision to move Lombardi out of the lineup, I think there was some question marks because Lombardi was doing a lot of really good things.

But Boquist is just I mean, it's it's clicking right now.

Like their lines are working pretty well the way they have them situated.

I think we do have a devil's voicemail, so why don't we get to that, and maybe we'll move on to the Islanders after this.

Jack Hughes.

Back to Boquist for the shot and scores! And the Devils get the big third goal and take a 3-0 lead.

Shot by Myers, pitch, score! Justin Ritz-Cobian! Scoring for the second straight game, and there's the spark the crowd was looking for.

Drives to the wing, shot, score! A wicked wrister from Luke, and it's 4-1! Brad...
