Cory Schneider: Roberto Luongo

Roberto Luongo: But this one is not specifically about Roberto Luongo or another crease crusader. Instead, it involves rookie centre Bo Horvat, the club's top pick in this year's NHL draft. , according to Times Colonist. Horvat, an 18-year-old Rodney, Ont., native, was selected with the ninth overall pick that the Canucks acquired in a trade from the New Jersey Devils for goaltender Cory Schneider. But Horvat is trying not to get caught up in the hype surrounding the deal, which resulted after Schneider was expected to remain as No. 1 and Luongo anticipated for more than a year that he would be dealt. VANCOUVER - A new chapter in the Vancouver Canucks' goaltending saga is about to unfold at the NHL club's training camp. Horvat will get a chance to make an impression Friday as the Canucks hold their first on-ice workouts after on-ice testing Thursday at UBC and off-ice evalutions on Wednesday at Rogers Arena.
