Not sure based on comparable players that 8 million is crazy. He’s played well before this year and been a beast in the playoffs. Scoring centre who is elite at face offs…. Those players will always get paid.Horvat is going to get comically overpaid because he's having an insane year this year.
He's a 2nd line center on a good team and some crazy team is going to pay him $8 million a year.
When you look at his historical numbers and the line mates he played with and the consistency of his numbers he's better than his previous years suggest I would say.Horvat is going to get comically overpaid because he's having an insane year this year.

With this analysis, Red Wings would choose Horvat. I would love it if they could trade for him, hopefully for a sign and trade. We would have a great 1C 2C 3C lineup and that's surprising to even think about because we never really had good center depth for the past 5-7 years or so.Question is, would you rather have Miller or Horvat at 8M?
Miller has scored more in the last few years but is sometimes a clown defensively. Horvat scores less but is better defensively. Absolute faceoff ace. Horvat is 2 years younger and team captain.
Obviously this ship has sailed but Miller really should have been dealt instead.
Should have been. But by the way those tweets are worded, the management group stated that the Miller deal handcuffed them in regards to Horvat. Possibly buyers remorse?Question is, would you rather have Miller or Horvat at 8M?

The reason it is outlandish is that their agents started by asking for the Couturier contract (Friedman like two months ago), and this report indicates that they seemingly offered him that... and they said no.Honestly, 8 mil for Bo is not that bad.
He’s not a top line center, but he’s the perfect 2C. With the cap going up soon I don’t think it’s as outlandish as everyone’s making it seem.
Put him as Colorado or Carolina's 2C at $8 million and he slots great for a win-now team.Honestly, 8 mil for Bo is not that bad.
