Canuckfanforlife82 Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) As per TSN, "I am focused on this season and playing for the Vancouver Canucks, helping the team in any way I can. I will not have any further comments this year about my future," Horvat said in the statement. This response just seems like he has checked out and I understand why but he needs to be traded for a good package. Should have been Miller. They screwed up but maybe they should both go and get a haul. Edited December 13, 2022 by Canuckfanforlife82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maginator Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 (edited) Just get a haul for him. Young C Young RD 1st He's as good as gone. Honestly I'm excited for the next chapter and a new captain for this team. We've been mediocre for way too long. It's starts from the top down and that includes our captain.

King Heffy Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Isn't that the kind of question he pays his agent to answer anyway? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekey Pete Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Nothing to see here. Pretty much your boilerplate NHL player response to that question. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean at face value it is a standard thing to say but it's what he's not saying that is important. He doesn't seem to have any commitment to the team beyond cash in hand. I used to like Horvat but he's clearly putting his own interests before the team's. I wonder what is going on behind the scenes. I wanted him to stay but if that's his attitude good riddance. We want people who want to play here. Go Canucks Go! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We want people who want to play here. Go Canucks Go! Exactly. Usually players who want to stay, say it and he did not reiterate what he said earlier in the year. It speaks volumes. I think he's had enough of this gong show. Ownership needs to sell. I am really surprised to see a lot of people on here who are willing to keep things the same after the lack of success this team has had over a number of years. We suck yet let's sign everyone to long term contracts. Makes no sense. Edited December 13, 2022 by Canuckfanforlife82 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You Mad Bro? Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Disappointing this organization was never able to build a winning team around him during his tenure. Even find good wingers for him to consistently play with. Sad. Wish Horvat nothing but success during the next chapter of his career and life.

It's a standard response, essentially he is giving notice that if asked again his response will be "no comment". He wants to focus on hockey. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
