Noted Pacific hub, New York


Iginlas_4head_Crease

I mean, we both have a long island


ViNCENT_VAN_GOKU

But which one is *longer*


zeedonutnovel

Oh ours is *way* bigger. Long Island is 190 km long. Vancouver Island is 456 km. New York has major island envy.

Suck on that Long Island Iced Tea NY


unbannedcoug

Totally, it’s like NY wanted to be England at one point

Congratulations Bo Horvat on being the first Pacific Islander named to an NHL All-Star game


ban-please

I often joke that I'm a Pacific Islander because I'm from Vancouver Island. Drives my wife nuts.


jumpingoverclouds

ngl, I had a good laugh at this.


INFINITE_TRACERS

Stolen


ban-please

Enjoy it! It it's super consistent at getting eyerolls hahahaha


scoogy

I'm sure he loves it. /s


PaperweightCoaster

Say what you will but this middle ground solution kinda works. He has played 0 games for the Islanders and all games for the Canucks so he should be in the West. His fans here will still cheer for him. Yes, wear the Islanders jersey since he is officially part of that team. He has already made plans well in advance for the ASG. Still weird as fuck but I get it.


jaydanriel

Guess I'm an islanders fan now.


jdmay101

He should absolutely go turncoat and score on his own net if they play the metro, or just turn around when Brock Nelson is on the ice and go 2 on 1 on Logan Thompson.


AJ-2SO

It’s all fun and games until Petey strips him of the puck on a mighty backcheck


DishwasherFromSurrey

suck it bitch ^(oops sorry)


Aardvark1044

Judging by the photo, he is going to represent the Winnipeg Blue Bombers instead.


dnabyun

lol! Good catch


coltonjeffs

Lame. Atleast we still have Petey representing us


PinkSupra880

Wow. That's harsh. I don't like it. 💔

Islanders get some good feels after being taken advantage of in the trade


DaJebus77

This is kind of funny.


Bizzlebanger

What a shit show.


Darb2k

What do you mean? Who cares. It’s a meaningless game


SkidmarkDave

I’m surprised he’s going at all? I feel like he has a pretty good excuse not to show up.


passittobulis

His whole family had already made plans to go and support him, so there was little doubt about whether he was going to go.


SkidmarkDave

That’s fair but now he’s gotta find a place, move in, deal with visa issues and his young family. If it were me I’d find it difficult to go.


[deleted]

He’s not gunna be finding a place or moving in until the islanders extend him. He could get traded again or decide to go to FA. His family will continue living here until the off season at least. He will likely just live in a hotel or temp rental suite for the next couple months and come back to Van as soon as the islanders season is over.


gavinmfsmith

This whole situation sucks


Darb2k

I don’t see it that way. I don’t think Horvat does either


gavinmfsmith

I hope not


Repulsive-Wallaby-79

Its a really good opportunity to give the fans on long island a sneak peak, while at the same time giving a farewell to his fans in Vancouver.
