Maybe should have given us something to cheer about Bo, how could any team respect it’s captain when you would never stick up for your teammates.
You just know he reads Canucks Reddit posts about him post trade.
Doesn’t seem safe to burn bridges if you’re an islanders. If someone burns the ferries too then you’re hooped.
Okay I think Bo is a stand up person but honestly what the fuck is this.
I’m sorry that we didn’t cheer like crazy for a team that hasn’t played a playoff game in front of fans in 8 years. Plus last year the fans were completely on board for the Bruce run even though the team was never in a playoff spot
How would he know how fans are in a post season run ? Never came close when he was here
Damn and he was our captain?
Have fun with your 1st round exit, isles ain’t going nowhere
Here I was actually wishing Bo well in New York. Nice to know how he really feels I guess.
EDIT – Actually, this should be his entire “tribute” video when he comes to Vancouver.
Fucking yikes
Lol that was unnecessary. What a prick
Guys bitter his stats tanked after the trade.
Lol, that’s the most emotion he’s shown the past 8 years, maybe even more.
Future 8.5 million dollar 20 goal scorer Bo Horvat, ladies and gentlemen.
This would probably sting if I was ever a real fan of his. I never imagined we could trade a captain and I’d care less about it
I would be 100000000% fine with Horvat shitting on the Canucks management or coaching, but shitting on the fanbase for what? What does this accomplish?
I get that he’s not going to say bad things about the Islanders crowd. But he didn’t need to mention Vancouver. He could have just said what an amazing crowd here blah blah.
We’ve honestly been playing better as an overall team since he’s left. Hughes and Petey have been growing in their leaderships roles in such a small timeframe. Millers back to how he was last year too.
Oh helllll to the naw naw
Desperately trying to win over Islander fans after his massive drop off in production and mammoth contract.
Gee thanks… I guess in the past 9 seasons you haven’t given us much to cheer for, eh *Cap*?
Fuckin’ Prick.
Considering their team has something to play for and we don’t, and considering long islanders are louder in general than Vancouverites, he’s probably not wrong. It would be more a fair comparison to the fan volume during the 2011 run. But having said that; it’s pretty classless to say that publicly. You would NEVER hear such a comment from Henrik (if he had moved teams) or Linden or Naslund.
Ahhhh taking the Kesler route I see. Disappointing
Dead to me.
Here’s the original [video clip](https://twitter.com/islesmsgn/status/1644884651700256768?s=46&t=-6TfoOPAfQTkNPNNmaLWhA) from Isles’ twitter (not screen recorded)
Thought this was a dick move as he’s always so classy and this was unprovoked
Boo him out of town next time he’s here.
Was never captain material.
Low fucking blow. All the fans ever did was cheer this guy on. Fuck you Bo.
Well, he certainly didn’t have to do that. I understand that you’re gone now and wanna embrace your new team. But I never took Horvat as the type of guy who would be saying this kinda stuff. Everyone here loved and supported him all the time.
I understand that the team went through some really some really difficult times during his tenure. But when you are the captain of the team, you share a lot of that blame. To shit on the franchise so publicly seems unjustified.
