Up to 16 teams could be interested in trading for Canucks captain Bo Horvat

Bo Horvat's contract negotiations have hit a snag. The Canucks made their best offer to HorVat, but his camp declined it. Hor Vat was drafted at ninth overall in the 2008 NHL draft. Up to 16 teams are interested in trading for him.

Up to 16 teams are interested in Canucks captain Bo Horvat. The Ducks are the least interested, but they have a lot of assets to offer. Boston wants HorVat for two reasons: they need a new center and they want to keep him for a few more years. Calgary is interested but it's unlikely to be the top bidder. Hurricanes are one of the two best fits. They are already a strong Cup contender even without him. Vancouver would prefer to avoid dealing him within their division. Anaheim’s own first rounder is off the table. Flames are light on prospects and very light in cap space for next season.

Canucks don’t have enough centres for plethora of wingers

An excess of expensive wingers presents a dilemma for the Canucks. The Vancouver Canucks have an excessive amount of wingers. That's what "plethora" means - "an excessive amount." I would not want to be the type of person who told you the Canucks have a "plethora" and then have you find out that I have no idea what a "plethora" is. It's not just…

Red Wings Were Right to Avoid Bo Horvat

There has been lots of talk about the Detroit Red Wings' interest in Bo Horvat ever since Rick Dhaliwal listed Detroit as a team to watch in trade talks.

Who might the Leafs get at the deadline? Everyone wants to know. No one actually does. But here's five guys they won't get: Horvat would be awesome on the Leafs. There'd be a London area player there again, as there should always be, and he's legitimately an excellent player. He's affordable now in the last year of his contract at $5.5 million,…
