“He is nowhere near the defensive player OReilly Minus 24 is”
He isn’t anywhere near the DEFENSIVE player that O’Reilly is.

That’s all you got. You’re a way better troll than this buds.

I was wrong. Minus 23. Not Minus 24

For the fourth time for Sharples who clearly struggles with reading:

I wouldn’t trade Bo for ROR. Vancouver will be lucky if Bo becomes as good of a two way player as ROR.This player has been a consistent 60 point player while checking the oppositions best players. Or do you think Eichel plays all the tough defensive minutes? At this time Bo isn’t as good of a defensive player as ROR. +/- is not the best stat to gauge a players worth because of all the variables. It’s pretty clear you don’t or haven’t watched the player much or at all.

No I just see that every team he plays for are disasters. $7.5 million is supposed to help make better, not worst

“I stopped caring” - tell that to the owner as he’s writing you a cheque - Ryan

Minus 23 - A defensive juggernaut he is. “Bo will never been the shiney example ROR is.”

Two years ago Bo Horvat was -30. Edler was -40. Did they both improve leaps and bounds defensively? It’s such a useless stat when used on its own. Horvat has improved somewhat defensively but he is no stalwart yet. Green actually gave the guy more offensive zone starts as opposed to Desjardins who buried the kid in his own zone playing against the other teams best players.

I am no fan of ROR and his attitude either. You’ve went on a tangent here when all I basically said was they Bo would do well to be that good of a two way centre

Anyhow Blob, something just stinks a foul of ROR. He moaned about being an Avalanche. His Avalanche teammates didn’t like him. He moaned about being a Sabre.

When is Mr. $7.5 million gonna look in the mirror?

Yep getting gowed and ramming into a Tim Hortons and leaving the scene sounds like something you would do back in the day.

He is a strange cat. Maybe he plays well for St Lou. He has the talent to do so.

The 1st round prospect the Sabres acquired from the Blues Tage Thompson has spoken.

Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

2 seasons ago, I thought BoHo was better than Nate McKinnon, but McKinnon just exploded with a monster year. U never know, it's still early. It's pretty much Bo's team now. If he can stay healthy and continues to be the 1st liner playing with Brockstar, I expect a breakout year. He prob won't reach McKinnon numbers, but I don't think we have seen the best from BoHo just yet.

Canucks did not lose a draft pick in the Sutter trade.

(it was 9 spot pick upgrade, Nucks still got their targeted player: Lockwood)

One-billion-and-three times.

Re: "3rd/4th line guy" - Sutter has averaged over 17 minutes per game over his 10-year career minus his rookie season.

Neither would I. Bo is four years younger and on a cheaper contract. I just said Vancouver will be lucky if Horvat becomes that good of a player.
He already is better. Horvat was well on his way to a 30 goal season before breaking his leg last season, and he has a much better attitude to boot
Agreed, Bo is the better player of the two and he earns $2M less per year, GMJB is a genius.
