Bo Horvat indicates he'll pay fan's lost bet after botching shootout attempt

Well, at least he seems to have a sense of humour about it. Amid what's been a tough season for the Vancouver Canucks so far, the team's captain made a huge error in the shootout portion of Saturday's game against the Nashville Predators. Bo Horvat had a chance to extend the shootout with a goal, but didn't even manage to get a shot on net as he lost the puck before getting to the goaltender, handing the Preds the win.

On an Instagram post of the botched shootout attempt, a fan tagged Horvat while saying he lost $91.50 on a bet because of of it. He asked if Horvat could e-transfer him what he lost. Horvat told the fan to DM him his information so he could pay it.

I'm not certain Horvat is serious here, but a funny moment all the same. The only shootout attempt in recent memory worse than Horvat's would be Brad Marchand's botched try in 2020.
