If he can stay healthy this is a solid signing with long term potential. Most likely situation though is he plays solid for 50% of the season and misses the other 50% due to injuries

Twitter admin got the contract wrong at first it’s a one way contract not two-way they updated it on their twitter

Sick! I was actually really hopeful we would snag him. He seems very high ceiling if conditioned and utilized correctly. OEL part 2, perhaps.

Really excited about this signing. If he is good he’s a RFA next year that Zito can work his magic on. Another great off-season for Big Z.

Does this put us over the salary cap ? How will this work ?

Both Bro-qvists, must be cool for them. Adding another RHD is never a bad thing.

Our 2nd Boqvist acquired this offseason.
[Blue Jackets fans speak about him quite glowingly here from a thread over a year ago.](https://np.reddit.com/r/BlueJackets/comments/146a4q2/blues_fan_adam_boqvist/) They were also [quite bummed out when he landed on IR](https://np.reddit.com/r/BlueJackets/comments/1aci721/boqvist_to_ir/) last season. Seems like another great lowkey scoop-up by Zito and the fact he’s only going to be 24 by the time the season starts is an added bonus!
