Horvat on Wednesday was named to Canada’s roster for the upcoming Milan Olympics. He missed five games in December because of injury.
Despite missing time, the 30-year-old from London, Ontario, is the Islanders' leading scorer with 33 points, and his 21 goals are nine more than his next-closest teammate.
