Bo Horvat has been the man of the hour lately and he's been a hot topic for almost every Canucks talk show, since he has yet to signed a contract extension.

"I think there's a dawning reflecting that it's unlikely to happen, I think at this point everyone knows that it's unlikely."

He believes that Horvat would fetch a similar return to Matt Duchene when he moved from Ottawa to Columbus or even Kevin Hayes when he was shipped from the Rangers to the Jets.
