Bo Horvat was traded to the islanders a couple days ago, but the Islanders have not had a game since the trade, therefore Horvat is going to the all star weekend as a islanders player, but has never played a game for them. You can find the details of the trade here.
There was a lot of controversy about what division Horvat should play for and what jersey he should wear during the all star weekend. He earned himself an all star spot by playing for the Canucks, so many believe he should play for their division, but also he no longer is part of an organization in that division so why would he play for that team…
Well Bo Horvat is wearing the Islander’s reverse retro jersey at the all-star skills competition tonight, and he had a couple comments of his own on the situation…
It certainly must feel pretty weird that the first time you put on a team’s sweater is not for a team practice or for a game but for all star competition…
