Horvat scored an empty-net goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Avalanche.
Horvat gave the Canucks some late insurance to hold off an Avalanche team that's lost just four times in regulation at home this season. The 26-year-old center has found a groove on offense with seven goals and two helpers in his last eight contests. For the season, the Ontario native has 24 tallies, 42 points, 166 shots on net, 83 hits and a plus-1 rating in 60 games.
