The NHL season is in full swing, and as teams evaluate their early performances, NHL trade rumors inevitably swirl around the league. One such rumor that has captured the attention of fans involves the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Florida Panthers, with defenseman Adam Boqvist at the center of the discussions.
The Columbus Blue Jackets are reportedly engaging in trade dialogues concerning moving a defenseman off their roster. Adam Boqvist, a young and promising defenseman, has emerged as a notable trade candidate due to his skill and favorable contract. Boqvist’s attractive $2.6 million cap hit for the next two seasons could potentially fetch a first- or second-round pick in return, making him a valuable asset on the trading block.

The Canucks are the team that should be focusing on Boqvist and not the Panthers.
Columbus should be looking at trading Jack Roslovic and not Boqvist.
Boqvist is an interesting player. Looked at his results on PuckIQ. Relatively sheltered player. However against elites, his DFF%Rel has been positive the last two years on a pretty bad team.
