Bo Horvat to make NHL debut versus Colorado

I think the Team is just managing assets nothing more. I don't believe Bo has earned a spot on the team but the Team wants him to get experience playing in the NHL. They did the same with Jensen but obviously he didn't stick with the big club. I don't think they will put him in key games though. Maybe give him a shot against Colorado.

IMHO it seems like a bit of a slap in the face of the prospect in Utica who are producing and yet overlooked by management because Horvat is only 19 years of age. That's his only redeeming feauture so far. It's either the NHL or Junior. Players such as Gaunce, Jensen and Grenier can out perform him but he gets the carrot..they get the stick

It is because they don't really need a call up at this point. Bo's conditioning stint is over so he can go in one of two directions. They want to give him the best opportunity to develop. So they will see what he can do in the NHL. It really is their only opportunity to see him i the NHL this year.

i wouldnt put money on it...

I would bet a lot that Bo would NOT play today. It makes no sense. He has not even had a chance to take line rushes with possible line mates in practice yet.

And the team is playing well. Tonight's lineup will be the same as last night except Lack goes in for Miller.
