Frank Seravalli identifies the Ideal Landing spot for Bo Horvat
It's no news that Canucks' captain Bo Horvat is likely to be this incoming deadline's top trade bait. Horvat is producing at a pace we've never seen before and he's been one of the top faceoffs guys in the NHL for quite some time, making him an extremely valuable asset to any contending team.
With the way they kicked off the season and how it's going as of late, Canucks aren't expected to be a playoff contender and the closer we move to the trade deadline the more unlikely it seems that Horvat will be in a Canucks jersey after the deadline.
Frank Seravalli once again found himself on most Headlines as he's stated the ideal landing spot for the Canucks captain.
''Boston could be the ideal landing spot for Bo Horvat. He would not only make Boston's Top 9 forward group one of the most formidable heading into the playoffs, but his addition also might help entice David Pastrnak to extend seeing that the window to win won't be completely shut whenever Bergeron decides to hang up his skates.'' The renowned NHL insider makes valid points, with multiple contracts needing renewal by the of the current season. Pastrnak will certainly want confirmation that it's in the team's plan to continue winning while he enters his prime.
Horvat would fit in nicely in Boston for sure. They have plenty of talent and they've been outstanding this season as they lead the NHL in points. They have tremendous depth, but adding another great forward could relieve some minutes off of David Krejci and Patrice Bergeron who are both agings.
They have a few interesting prospects and 1st rounders that could be moved and if they can find a way to fit Horvat with their remaining cap space, they're definitely a team to watch in the Horvat sweepstakes.
