Bo Horvat has been in the NHL trade rumors mill since late October and it appears his time as a Vancouver Canuck is winding down. The big question is, which team will he be traded to?
Horvat has been connected to the New York Rangers, Colorado Avalanche and the Seattle Kraken. He will be a rental player but there is big demand for Horvat and the Canucks should receive a decent return for the pending UFA.
Edmonton Oilers interested in a Bo Horvat trade
Jeff Marek was on his 32 Thoughts Podcast and speculates that he can see the Edmonton Oilers as a long-term fit for Bo Horvat.
Horvat would accept a trade to Edmonton and knows Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl will be around for a few more years.
The Oilers do need defense but if the opportunity is there to make a Horvat trade, GM Ken Holland will make it.
