Boeser wore a non-contact jersey and didn't participate in the entire skate.
The 22-year-old entered concussion protocol after he went headfirst into the boards following a hit from behind from Ottawa Senators forward Chris Tierney.
Boeser signed a new contract on Sept. 16, coming to terms with the club on a three-year contract with an average annual value of $5.875 million. He potted 26 goals and added 30 assists in 69 games last season.
