rickshaw Posted December 12, 2022 Report Share Posted December 12, 2022 Bo Horvat rejected Canucks offer recently. He’s now apparent he market. If I’m Buffalo I’m seriously looking into his services and whether he’d sign extension. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be too rich for my blood -- he looks like he is having contract-year-itis with a shooting percentage of 21.5, which is 35% above last year's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That says to me that it's more than just money. Vancouver doesn't look close so it may that he's looking for his best chance at winning a Cup perhaps.

Vancouver doesn't look close so it may that he's looking for his best chance at winning a Cup perhaps. I'm sure he wants to win, but I think it is mostly about money. With 31g in 70 games last year, and 20 in 28 this year, he is probably thinking...he is in the prime of his career, this is going to be his ONE big contract, hes sure he is a legit 40g scorer, and he sees younger guys getting better offers than he was given who haven't proved what he has. I think he wants a long term deal at $9-$10m per year. JT Miller just got $8m per year, and Horvat figures he is a few years younger and has scored more goals for the team over the past 2 years total. Or me might be looking at the over $9 Barzal just signed and thinking he is MUCH more productive than him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like Horvat and he is the type of player the Sabres need. However, I don’t think the Sabres will offer him what he wants and his role on the team would be 2C, blocking Cozens. Way too much money for a 3C, which Horvat would be for the Sabres. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgary did what Buffalo failed to do, and kill a 4 minute penalty in OT / 4 on 3. Gutsy PK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorny Posted December 13, 2022 Report Share Posted December 13, 2022 Marek today was talking about the work Sakic did in Colorado, how he inherited a lot of the high end talent there, but his work was in manipulating the group into what it is, buoyed by savvy, moneyball-esque free agent pickups. He said one of Sakic’s biggest things was that you should never turn down the opportunity to improve your team, no matter how small, considering the difference between winning and losing at this level can be razor thin. Reminded me of the work Adams is doing, to a large extent. Not claiming Reilly, for example, seems to fly in the face of the “anything to improve” thing, but the reconfiguration of the asset base into a worthy sum of its parts sounds like what he’s doing/attempting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruins fans felt Reilly bumbled badly anytime he was pressured in the Dzone and we honestly have plenty of that already at a cheaper cost lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be overly focused on Canadian teams like the Leafs but they will give you more info and usually faster. Hockey is important to most Canadians. and of course right here where breaking news is usually posted quickly . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly this is exactly the vibe I was feeling that you’ve now put into words haha. It’s the alliteration I think. edit - re: my point on alliteration. Might have helped if there was even one alliterative horse in the ‘16 field but alas, no. Whoops. Well, whatever.
