Un an plus tard, et bien qu'il ait annoncé son intention de prendre sa retraite, les Penguins de Pittsburgh le recrutent dans le cadre d'un transfert intra-ligue. Il finira par signer un contrat avec Pittsburgh et jouera dans cette équipe jusqu'en 1972, année où il fait une fois encore l'objet d'un transfert intra-ligue qui l'intègre dans les Sabres de Buffalo. En 1974, Horton est en contrat avec les Sabres quand il perd tragiquement la vie; en rentrant chez lui à Buffalo à bord de sa voiture de sport, une Pantera, après avoir disputé un match à Toronto, il perd le contrôle de son véhicule lancé à plus de 160 km/h sur la Queen Elizabeth Highway, près de St. Catharines.

For those of you who aren't familiar with the Pantera, Ford's Lincoln-Mercury dealers sold the Pantera from their showrooms during the 1971-74 model years. The car was built at the Detomaso factory in Mondena, Italy and was then shipped to the USA for distribution to the dealers. I visited the Detomaso factory in early 1984 to see my newly ordered GT5S, but I never got to see it... It was being painted at Vignale.

Ford actually imported Panteras in 1971 at its Lincoln Mercury dealers, which were the favored course of marketing ala the German built Merkur from Germany. The American versions came with all the stateside amenity essentials and just over 1,000 found U.S. soil that first year.

 In 1972, the Ford Cleveland had to drop its compression ratio from 11.6 to 8.6 to pass U.S. fuel and emission standards. A "Lusso" Pantera L was introduced in 1972, and featured black bumpers and more luxury items. A 1974 Pantera GTS featured even more luxury items as the brand struggled to make it through the fuel crisis.
