Boqvist is drawing into the lineup for Game 5 of the Panthers’ second-round Stanley Cup playoffs series against the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday. He is replacing Evan Rodrigues, who is sidelined with an injury sustained in Game 4 on Sunday.

Former Panther Oliver Ekman-Larsson delivered a high hit on Florida forward Evan Rodrigues in the third period of Game 4, and Rodrigues did not return. Rodrigues suffered an undisclosed injury that sidelined him for Game 5 on Wednesday, Florida coach Paul Maurice said.

With an opportunity to gain a leg up in the Eastern Conference Second Round, the Florida Panthers will visit the Toronto Maple Leafs for Game 5 at Scotiabank Arena on Wednesday. After dropping the first two games of the series at Toronto, the Panthers returned home to win Games 3 and 4 and set the stage for a brand new best-of-three showdown.
