Adam Boqvist (born 15 August 2000) is a Swedish professional ice hockey defenceman who is currently playing for Florida Panthers of the National Hockey League (NHL). He was selected eighth overall by the Chicago Blackhawks in the 2018 NHL Entry Draft.
Boqvist made his Swedish Hockey League debut with Brynäs IF on 21 September 2017.[1]
Following the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, where he was selected eight overall, Boqvist signed a three-year, entry-level contract with the Chicago Blackhawks.[2] [3] On 5 July 2018, the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) announced that Boqvist would join the team for the 2018–19 season.[4] Boqvist scored his first NHL career goal in a 3–2 win over the Anaheim Ducks on 3 November 2019.[5] [6]
On 23 July 2021, Boqvist, along with multiple draft picks, was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for Seth Jones and multiple draft picks.[7] [8] On 6 July 2022, Boqvist signed a three-year, $7.8 million contract extension with the Blue Jackets.[9]
After two injury-plagued seasons with the Blue Jackets, Boqvist having fallen down the depth chart on the blueline for Columbus was placed on unconditional waivers and later bought out from the remaining year of his contract on 30 June 2024.[10] On 9 July 2024 it was announced that Boqvist signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with the Florida Panthers for the season, joining older brother Jesper who had also signed as a free agent over the summer[11]
