At this point we know one team has offered a first-round pick along with their top prospect, meanwhile there's several teams in the mix who have yet to send in their 'final' offers. Teams who have interest include the Colorado Avalanche, Detroit Red Wings, Edmonton Oilers, Boston Bruins, Toronto Maple Leafs and Washington Capitals.
Expect to see Horvat moved in the next couple of weeks as things begin to change in Vancouver. Rick Tocchet takes over behind the bench this week and will likely see several of his roster players change between now and March 3 trade deadline. Captain Horvat appears to be the first set to go.
