Similar to JT Miller, Horvat is having by far the best year of his career in a contract year and is likely to get paid way more than his normal production says he should.

If the Canucks flip Beau for a quality return the Canucks win this deal and they have time to do this as his contract is up after next year.

Also, if I was cheering for one of the bottom teams, I would love that my team got a deal done now rather than 5 weeks from now. This draft is worth trying to tank now then trying to get another pick added to the deal.
