Report: New Contenders Emerge In Bo Horvat Sweepstakes

Bo Horvat is undoubtedly the best forward that will be moved prior to or at the trade deadline. Horvat has 49 points in 44 games and will be an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.

After negotiations failed last summer, Horvat's time in Vancouver starting to tick away. With Horvat set to be moved, it appears the favorites to land the star have emerged. Jimmy Murphy of Boston Hockey Now reported that the Bruins, Avalanche, Red Wings, Hurricanes, and Kraken are all in on Horvat.

The runaway favorite to land Horvat is the Boston Bruins. They have the prospects and the glaring hole left by Jake DeBrusk in the lineup to pull off a trade for Horvat. With the Bruins leading the Atlantic Division by 13 points, adding Horvat solidifies the Bruins as the Stanley Cup Favorite.
