But that's not his fault, it's just not his game. I guess when Bo was developing, I really thought he would be the Iginla/Kesler/Brind'Amour type emotional leader and wear his heart on his sleeve. Doesn't mean he's not a good captain and not a solid second line center! Ive been very critical of Horvat’s play mainly because of his poor decision making with the puck. He is definitely not without criticism for sure. Though, more often than not, he’s doing good things for us, especially defensively. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely you can’t expect Horvat to superman jump the entire scrum while Miller’s already into it. Horvat sticks up for guys all the time. To be honest its about showing up to the dance and just taking the mess that comes with it. Miller was tired too and still took on that mess to protect his teammate. I love Bo, but simply showing up for your teammates in those moments are what matters and speak louder. I don't expect him to forcefully maul guys down, but you gotta show some conviction when you see your teammates getting tagged by others. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunno how everyone feels about him but he seems to be getting more confident and really starting to blossom as an NHL defenseman. He’s physical, doesn’t give away the puck, and positionally is very strong. I hope Bruce keeps him in the lineup. I really can see him growing into our new Tanev (if Tanev actually hit people that is…) Burroughs is a gem. Not sure if his ceiling is Tanev high but him just being a solid third pairing heart and soul guy is awesome. Being a BC boy makes it even better. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HockeyHarry Posted February 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2022 Im all for moving Dickinson. I don’t see what he brings to this team. All i see that he brings Canucks is a Bad PK. Just move him, get rid of his Cap hit, don’t need anything in return . Move his contract to another team. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He more often than not does, just this play Miller was already on it because he was right there. Miller has just about as much leadership responsibility as Bo does and it was handled. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s he supposed to do though, go after Couture, Burns, etc? He could have gotten a retaliatory penalty in that crucial stage of the game. He couldn’t physically get to Meier even if he tried to because of the amount of big bodies in front of him. Miller was already taking care of it, Horvat would have stepped up if someone else decided to instigate for sure. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we keep that up we may sneak into the playoffs, but this special teams isn't helping at all and Demko can't get beaten short side twice in a game. Clark will fix that I’m not worried. Demko it the type of goalie that needs to play a lot. Those 4 days off probably hurt his rhythm. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Posted February 18, 2022 Share Posted February 18, 2022 Win is good. Two points is good. However the team is weak and poor. I found the Motte line and New Burrow good to-night. Too many giveaways, too many unnecessary penalties, PK and PP were not workable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still seems to struggle reading plays at times and getting sticks in passing lanes. Edited February 18, 2022 by MrCanuck94 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
