Player Discussion: Bo Horvat

[Throttle]

One of the best trades for the Isles in a very long time. One of the best Isles players in a very long time.

Horvat since Barzal has been injured:

13 GP - 2G -2A - 4P. -12 plus/minus. Absolute 0 on the PP. Won’t bother going into the fancy stats, but they’re not great!

Shouldn’t really matter if Nelson is gone or Barzal is out - he’s our 1C, he’s supposed to be able to put the team on his back some nights. If he can’t ever generate offense by himself… what are we even doing here?

Love the guy, don’t want to move him.

But this is very valid criticism. He needs to be a shoe in of 30-35 goals.

PP sucks but he’s a big part of it. He needs to make it work. That’s what you’re paid for.

Bo with out Barzal, Palms with out Brock. Suck

Plan should be make them both best friends this off-season.

Or an idea floated on Isles House which I liked (should’ve just effin traded 21 but alas). Palms becomes stapled to Cal Ritchie on the 3rd line. Nice winger to guide our top prospect C

Not even just Ritchie, but any young player - this is a positive assuming they do follow through and sign Palmieri. He could be like a modern JP Parise or Jude Drouin. In fact, I'm not entirely sure they're not all the same guy.
