As stated in the previous article, The Islanders won their game on Saturday night against the Flyers and it was a very memorable win, in a few different ways than one.
After the game in front of the home crowd, MSGSN takes the time to interview one of the players after a win.
This time it was Bo Horvat, after his two assist game and he was asked a few simple questions and then was asked about the playoff crowd at UBS Arena and how it ranks with his past experiences.
This was his response.
When I heard this live on television, I was stunned.
Bo was the captain of the Canucks for many years, so I can understand why he is receiving so much backlash for this quote from his former fans.
On the other side, I am really happy Bo is embracing the home crowd like this, and that he is enjoying Long Island this much and being a New York Islander.
