Boldy has only played about a half of a season, so it's fair to be cautious, but he did look reeeally good in those games. When comparing rookie years, it's not an exactly congruent comparison as Svechnikov was two years younger than Boldy and played with generally less-skilled players (Martinook and Wallmark vs. Fiala and Gaudreau, their most common linemates).
Personally, I would take Svechnikov simply because I like what he's shown over four seasons; but Boldy is still very good and could easily end up the better player.
