We Now Know What a Trade For Bo Horvat Would Look Like From the Boston Bruins
When Vancouver ultimately trades their captain, Bo Horvat, it will be for a true haul.
The assets acquired in this trade will be foundational for the next era in Vancouver, as they begin a re-tool.
Horvat is worth a haul for a contending team, as he is the ideal two-way centerman. If he comes with retained salary, he would be an easy piece for any contender to acquire.
One of these contending teams may be the Boston Bruins. They're first-place in the NHL, and poised for a trip deep into the playoffs.
Sportsnet NHL insiders, Ryan Dixon and Jason Bukala have revealed what a trade for Bo Horvat could look like for Vancouver:
Here is their reasoning for the trade:
The Bruins are obviously in it to win it this year and Horvat could give them a huge push. And while Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci look great this year, I'll they're both over-35 players with limited runway left in the NHL. Horvat would help the group now and ease the transition to the next iteration of the team when those Black and Gold legends eventually hang 'em up.'
