"When he's on, those are the moves he's going to make."Those moves were on display in Games 1 and 2, when the Canucks had more open ice to work with, more room to pick up speed through the neutral zone.From his couch in Vancouver, Sedin watched Horvat in Game 2 dangle and turn Blues forwards Brayden Schenn and Jaden Schwartz inside out on his way to scoring maybe the prettiest goal of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.As Horvat started up the ice in the shorthanded situation, Sedin could have predicted what was coming next."He can beat guys 1-on-1," Sedin said. But I've always seen Bo as a better offensive player than a defensive player."Horvat also put those 1-on-1 skills on display in Game 1, when he danced by Blues defenseman Vince Dunn for a power-play goal."When he gets pucks in the right spot and he has his speed, he does that fake and he goes inside," Sedin said of the 25-year-old.
