Canucks Bo Horvat is Sick and Tired of Losing

Vancouver Canucks captain Bo Horvat continues to say all the right things this offseason as he recently opened up about how much he hates losing. Horvat is expecting a big year out of the Canucks and is hopeful the team can be successful come playoff time.

Horvat met with Thomas Drance of the Athletic recently and it's obvious, enough is enough, it's time to win:

I've been on the team, this will be my eighth year coming up, which is crazy. And I want to be in the playoffs. I don't want to go through the motions in the regular season and be done in April. I want to be playing in the playoffs, it's the best time to play, it's when I find I take my game to the next level. And I think we have the team here to get there. We just have to prove it now. Enough is enough, we can talk all we want, at the end of the day we have to go out there and prove it on the ice

After general manager Jim Benning set the team back a couple of seasons with some head-scratching offseason moves, this summer the vibe is much different around the hockey team. The Canucks made a huge trade and brought in Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Conor Garland and also added Jason Dickinson and Tucker Poolman. Let's see if it's enough to satisfy Horvat. who will be doing his best to lead by example next season.
