In the grander scheme of things you are probably right. There has to be a succession to bump Horvat. But I'm OK with him there as things sit with the line-up now. He's still pretty young and an ace in the faceoff circle that can put up decent points. Those guys don't grow on trees and are pretty costly to acquire.

Don't get me wrong I am not saying anything bad at all about Bo or his line . Can you imagine if that was the third line. You would have a pretty awesome team I would think.

Ask Jamie Benn.

I still think Benn was a smart signing. It looks though he came here more to retire than battle for a spot.

Interesting that a Dallas player would have that kind of insight into the Canucks locker room

That's the way I saw your comment. On the 3rd line he could play match up or teams would have to worry about matching his line. Would give us great flexibility on the road.

I used to jokingly refer to him as the next Bobby Orr, I think it was Vantel that gave me the gears over that one.

I sat right behind the goal at WJC, Hughes is the smoothest skater I‘ve seen, almost effortless.

There are times he looks like he’s lazily skating back, but he’s still passing people. Excited to see what he’s like in a couple years

I was really happy they took Hughes . I heard all along he would go top 3 and his skills were next level. I also felt the same when PodK was still available at 10.

My buddy and I thought we were getting Zadina when Arizona took Hayton as we didn't think Detroit would pass up on Hughes. Thank you Detroit for taking Zadina - still going to be a good player but we needed Quinn in the worst way!

Works for me.

Anything but another dose of Schaller. I think we all know what we've got in him by now.

Tough season for Motte. He's probably out for the rest of it.

Oil vs Flames hoping for a war.

Plus I refuse to give SHAW cash for the centre ice package they can go fu**ck themselves. Need Centre Ice to watch the Nucks.

You mean Rogers? Rogers owns the rights and sets the rules to watch that poop.

Horvat is scoring at 1C pace, not a 3C pace. You aren’t getting a better 2C on this team. 🧂

Lavender Scented for me please. I think you're missing the point of our discussion. Either that or you're getting high on your own supply.

Wouldn't a guy like Horvat provide great shelter for an offensive 2nd line centre? Doesn't mean he gets less icetime, nor less points. It actually expands his role and means the team and talent pool is maturing.

I think Benning is covering all the bases with picks , trades and free agents. As much as I like Pearson and Leivo it will be good to see some of these prospects coming in.

I still think we need a second line center though.

- VANTEL

Horvat is literally top 5 in terms of second line centers. In elite company. Watching him late in games has been a real treat, i really think he ought to be a dark horse for selke the way green rides him to close out games.
