  • @HomeskooledVideo dude your comment had me laughing my ass off! You made a good point as well, but the nappy time joke made me die laughing.

  • Dude...biggest elbow I have EVER seen.

  • It was dirty... but Churla deserved something dirty. Good play, Pavel!!!

  • hahaha, I remember how I loved it. All the 'tard texans were cheering every cheapshot on Bure and then they all cried like bitches to the refs while watching Churla take nappy time.

  • That wasn't a penalty back then, so it's fine. Besides it's not like all the hits Bure endured would be considered clean either.

  • I think Gino said it best, if you aren't gonna respect another player, don't expect him to respect you. As much of a cheap shot as it was, Churla got what he had coming to him and Bure stood up for not only himself but the pride of his team, like what any hockey player should do.

  • @gameover221 Awesome comment!

  • hahahha sucks to suck shane

  • Thats a fucking quality elbow. If i was the ref i would have congratulated him for it, not penalized him for it.

  • too bad sedin doesn't do the same thing to marchand....

  • who is Paville?

  • Churla got dead.

  • Canucks won the series 4-1, 'nough said. Canucks always make Dallas their bitch in the playoffs and if Dallas can get a miracle and finish 8th the Canuck will make them their bitch again this year.

  • Like the Chara incident, it was unintentional

    LOL

  • @Darkm99n haha !! well played buddy, well played. That Chara incident is rediculous, I love hockey, but right now the NHL is being ruled by a bunch of idiots. So inconsistent in their ruling its crazy.

  • And i still love bure after this!!!!!!

  • Bure let up just a little

  • Churla was a no talent goon.

  • never seen a bigger coward in my life, i don't see how people on here can respect that.

  • @keepitFrosted I don't see how people like you can be so oblivious. You call Bure a coward for defending himself once after taking abuse for the entire series. I want to see YOU go out there and get manhandled by players that are 2x as strong as you.

  • @Adrennalinne23 so then you AT LEAST give him a dirty hit when hes looking! there should NEVER be an excuse for blind siding someone like that, its fucking pathetic.

  • @keepitFrosted Oh god, you're just another one of those hopeless cases that want to defend their opinion even if it's hopelessly wrong. Dirty hits are called dirty for a reason, genius.

  • this hit reminds me of moore's cheapshot on nazzy that lead to the end of moore's shitty career nasty dirty check by a coward. still one of my fav players but this makes him look like a punk

  • you know in this game i think bure is justified. this game was pure violence and i credit bure with coming out on top. nice toughness from a russian goal scorer.

  • karma is a bitch. bure is a fucking legend.

  • Typical, bure couldn't do anything about it until a guy wasn't looking, dirty, cheap, typical. Great player, liked him, but this was so illegal, were there penalties called against the players 'harassing' him throughout the game? were they blindsiding him in the head? play hard, hit clean, bure looks bad in this hit, beyond dirty/disrespectful, not part of his game.

  • @excitationz Hit clean? You CLEARLY did not watch that series and are basing this on one game.

  • I'm sure pavel will be introducing himself back too grapes, oh wait he just did like a nice russian boy.

  • loved bure. had a mean streak that's for sure. greatest Russian player in my books

  • Bure was a very skilled player but also one of the dirtiest cowards.

  • Regardless of what Churla did to Bure this game, there is absolutely no need for a cheap shot like that. That was one of the dirtiest plays I've ever seen. I used to like Bure but that's just ridiculous. 

  • Whats the name of the song playing?

  • If that happened today in the NHL it would be so different. The league has changed quite a bit since then, probably since the Bertuzzi on Moore hit especially. Headshots are a bigger issue now than before - the NHL takes it pretty seriously. Well, they've probably always taken it seriously... the media nowadays talks about shit way more too, I guess.

  • damn what a hit

  • Kaboom Baby!

  • The mother of all cheapshots... what a ruskie punk pussy... He couldn't stand toe to toe with Churla, so he sneaked him.. just like all pussies do,

  • puh-vell

  • Just imagine having Pavel Bure, Ovechkin, Kovalchuk on the same line? WOW ! I always enjoy watching Bure played...He show'd how hockey should be played.

  • @VOLUNTAS1000

    no need to imagine , the reality was even better the bure-fedorov-mogilny line played together as one of the most dominant trios ever at the WJC 1989 anchorage alaska

    just ask jeremy roenick or mike modano, who also played that christmas tourney

  • @VOLUNTAS1000

    Those 3 would have 20 games suspended total and 5 hit contracts out on them total.

  • Comment removed

  • @VOLUNTAS1000 Which one of them would be center? Powerplay, Bure,Datsyuk,Kovalchuk the front guys on defensive ovechkin and someone else, he does play as defensive sometimes in powerplays.

  • @Demandred02 federov could play d and you could throw Konstantinov on there as well.

  • @VOLUNTAS1000 ya they would kick serious ass! but they would never win anything

  • @VOLUNTAS1000 no Ovechkin Datsyuk Pure Or Ovechkin Mogilny  Bure.

  • @VOLUNTAS1000 instead of kovalchuk, id rather have semin there. but it would make more sense to have fedorov in the middle

  • @VOLUNTAS1000 They are all too selfish to play together and would fold-up like a cheap tent when it counted most - in typical Russian style.

  • Just imagine Bure, Selanne, Bondra on a line.. They wouldve been unstopable on NHL 94

  • i wish bure was still playing the guy was incredible

  • hahaha destroyed. i love bure

  • Fuck churla, Bure Unreal

  • beauuuuuty

  • pavel sure made churla his bitch there...LOL....that taught that Dallas MF er

  • Stay the f#4k down

  • finesse players always deliver the biggest elbows. bure wasn't getting protection and put it into his own hands, rather elbow. pavel at his prime!

  • Macho man Savage would approve.

  • looks like he had it comin! BOOM! the guy had to take care of himself out there

  • he fucking ended that dude, bure was a tough mofo, looked after himself, godamn, that could of killed his ass.

    MOYDAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

  • Bure hated being pushed around, if you were assigned to bug him all game, expect him to try and take you out in retalation. That's why Quinn decided to put Odjick on the same line with Bure so Odjick can take care of Bure's business.

  • amzing elbow!!

  • The refs weren't calling anything, Bure had to let them know he was not to be fucked with

  • woulda got 82 games for this in the "new" nhl

  • You're right trailor guy! Screw all these people that think it's ok to just rough up a little guy because he's good. You want to dish it out, be ready to take it back bitches! Good for Bure and good for any little guy that doesn't take the bullying.

  • @unifyus I agree to an extent. If Bure hit him cleanly all would be fine. There is no excuse for cheap shots and dirty plays

  • Bure wins.

  • don cherry yu can tell he never did like pavel bure, prolly b cuz he was to good, im a canadian and pavel was my favourite player, i would nt blame bure he wwas getting shadowed and being picked on like everytime he was on the ice, todays game they prolly wouldve been penalties for the stars prolly alot!!! LonG LiVE BURE

  • @trailorguy

    Well Cherry started to like Pavel, I think after this hit actually, lol. I think the quote is "playing the right Canadian way" when talking about Bure, lol.

    Bure's also my favourite player. Most exciting player ever.

  • Amazing how some ppl bitch about a star player getting dirty. Seriously just cause he is a star player doesn't mean he has to just stand there and take the abuse. If guys are gonna play dirty on star players expect the star player to repay the favor.

  • TRUE! I also hate when ppl get all frustrated when Snipers fight, they say "Thats not his job, his job is to score goals!" I say BS! His job is to play Hockey first of all and if he gets picked on, a fight is worth it! END OF STORY!

  • preach on Father!

  • i didnt know don cherry was that old

  • I would hate to know what you would call the so called tough guys on the Stars.

  • Churla

    McRae

    Plett

    Maxwell (who held the record for most PIM's in a season until Peluso broke the record in 1993)

    it was the "chuck" Norris division baby....

  • I LOVE BURE!!!!! I LOVE HIM! there's something about his attitude, looks, way of playing! What a badass, he feeds on his anger, gets back to them by any means necesary!

  • Bure's elbow was a head shot, but so was Churla's shot on Bure at the other end. Bure was just getting him back.

    If Bure was a Canadian, Don Cherry would have been idolizing him as somone who stands up for himself. I don't blame Bure for what he did.

  • A bunch of big guys picking on one little guy. Eventually, inevitably, the little guy avenges by means that are available to him. And everyone is outraged.

    It´s hilarious how fucking dumb people are.

  • wow....what a dirty shit play and no penalty...

  • but he did get suspended for game 3 of the series...and a $500 fine (big in those days I guess)

  • @danzax1

    He didn't get suspended, only fined.

  • Head shots are wrong. Bure should have submarined him and taken out his knees......

  • Shane Churla was a one-trick pony GOON. I'd say he *almost* deserved Bure's elbow to his dome.

  • holy owned dont let the bed bugs bight!

  • so sick just a sick hit sick sty

  • LOVE IT!!! Nice to see it on the other end!!!

  • Correct me if I'm wrong towesfan0910, but isn't Toews currently out of the shithawks lineup because Willie Mitchell decided to run train on his ass at center about a month ago? KEEP YA HEAD UP YA LITTLE BIAATCCHH!

  • correct me if im wrong isnt back in the lineup? yes he is you n your nucks should just gojoin the shitago cubs since you both have the same things in common you both suck major ass and you choke everytime you make the playoffs just go keep crying that we kicked your asses in the playoffs teach burrows how to not pull hair and throw a slap and actually win a cup before you say how long has it been since the hawks won it at least we have rings unlike the vancouver sucknuts

  • Shitcago Black Cocks

  • @Shawnnigan 1 inch luongo vancouver sucknuts vancouver cannots vancouver cachokers vancouver calosers vancouver we're just jealous that the hawks are in 2nd place in the league and we're in way high up in 19th place still pouting over the playoffs i can go on and on and on

  • it really seems like you like the canucks considering that you cant stop posting comments about them.

  • Nighty Night Shane!

  • OWNED

  • lol XD I KNOW

  • Man, just seeing that video makes me appreciate how talented and gritty Bure was. He did NOT give an inch in the clutch and grab NHL.

    Even if I'm a Leafs fan, I'm a hockey fan first. Bure was an amazing player that still goes under-appreciated.

  • @adrenaline83

    I can't believe he hasn't been inducted to the Hall yet...

  • yeah man its a joke. bure should have been a first ballot hall of famer.

  • shane?

  • WANGO

  • and of course its a nuck that throws the elbow

  • Haha Toews is out with a bruised uterus

  • are you sure thats not chris pronger

  • @washingtoncapitalsss if it was pronger he wouldve stomped on his leg lol

  • he would have elbowed him and THEN stomp on his leg and then hartnell would come in and bite him

  • Bure would of suspended for life in todays NHL.

  • yessssssssss. fuck that dude he was fucking with bure all game, should of known it was comin

  • @thisusernameisweak To churla's credit, he never whined to anyone about that. Besides, Big Gino was riding shotgun for Pavel

  • @thisusernameisweak Where was Gino? In the press box. Like Antoski was such a great enforcer. NOT

  • paybacks a bitch!!!

  • @jangster39 payback for what? Playing clean tough hockey. I guess when ever a player gets hit or roughed up he should elbow the other guy in the head?

  • @aqinthe , dude , if there was ever a guy in the NHl that deserved a cheap shot ELBOW to the head it was Shurla , how this guy every made the NHL is beyond me , im not a Bure or Canucks fan , but that bastard deserved it !, what comes around goes around ever heard of that saying!

  • @67Leafs I could think of a couple more deserving players ( Brian Marchment ) to name one. I'm not going to say that Churla didn't take cheap shots in his career, as he absolutely did. But in that game it wasn't deserved. Bure was a pussy though, no fighting just cheap shots.

  • @aqinthe in this game it was deserved.

  • Good job Bure churla got what he deserved

    GO CANUCKS GO!!!!!!

  • Chumpla was running him all night, He got what he deserved.

  • watch the video bure was hit also without the puck , so paybacks a BITCH

  • Who gives a shit? If he doesn't want to get hit then he should go play fucking tennis or something.

  • LOL @ this comment, Pavel Bure owned

  • Bure gave Messier a run for his money on the best elbow of the decade award.

  • GO CANUCKS GO!

  • hahahahaha

  • The funny part is that Dallas fans are too hockey-stupid to understand that what Bure did was cheap

  • It just goes to show what happens when you try stuff like that in old school hockey, you better be prepared for a reply good hit by bure

  • that's why I loved 90's hockey more than now

    look how rough it used to be

    no matter what the NHL does next, hockey will never be as exciting as it was before the new millennium

  • that was............. FUCKIN AWESOME! 5/5

  • Skill Player punks out Goon...always a satisfying sight, this one, even more so.

    "Snickers Moment" for Churla right there.

  • Holy shit

  • I hear the term "picking a deuce" a lot in hockey and Cherry used it in this video. Does anyone know what it means? I can't seem to find an answer.

  • He means going for a penalty I believe (dont quote me on that)

  • He says "taking abuse" not picking a deuce, and i've been watching and playing hockey since i was 8 and i've never heard picking a deuce, perhaps in the states its a phrase but not in Canada. BTW I'm not being rude, i've just never heard that after 16 years watching and playing

  • I saw that game, it was early in the first. Churla was 'sending a message', Bure replied.

    Churla left him alone after that. That's the way it goes in the BIG league.

  • Nope. I'm a canucks fan, but nothing... he should have gotten something, he didn't even get a penalty for it.

  • Wow, Colin Campbell really has your sucking his dick doesn't he?

  • whats with that porno music???

  • I remember watching this game. Churla was being a jerk all night and taking a rather extreme amount of liberty with his cheap shots. Bure finally had enough, and told Churla to fuck off, as you just saw.

  • Knocked the fuck out. That'll teach you to take liberties, Shane my boy.

    Time to raise #10's jersey to the rafters! All hail Bure!

  • thats one of those things in Bure, the mean streak, that got so many Vancouver/Canadian Fans on his side. He had a mean streak. Sort of like Ovechekin. Ove hits and scores like a Mamma Jamma, he might as well have been born in Canada. Kudos to russia for this guys.

  • shouldn't skate around like a goon and you wont get an albow in your chops

  • well played

  • great offensive talent...Id much rather have a Forsberg in my lineup though...he can check as he stick handles, and score a goal all at the same time...And yea, once n a while, an illegal hit hah

  • lol churla had it coming

  • bure is the best. that was some elbow. yeah bure

  • Good stuff. Good job Bure!

  • it wasn't just an elbow, he was sending a message

    you cant let the big guys walk all over you

  • Exactly. And it takes a hell of a lot of balls to do that as a speedy little forward who's there to score goals.

  • He probably had nightmares about Bure ever since

  • WHOOOOOAA!! Bure's your mom?!?!?!

  • huge elbow lol

  • the most insane with this is that shane churla was captain of the dallas stars in this game

    i am not joking

  • what the fuck is your point? Churla was a leader. Don't you know anything about hockey?

  • a leader?. don't you mean a lumberjack on skates?.

  • no I mean a leader, but your pretty new to hockey so I wont expect you to understand

  • stick to baseball or basketball ,your nuts

  • a leader lol lol lol

  • Churla was an idiot. Nice payback by Bure.

  • he just shat himself

  • Nice K.O!

  • Good job Pavel Bure

  • BEAUTIFUL

  • I concure with you DeepHauz ! Bure did exactly what he had to do ! Playoff Hockey ! Churla had to be stoped at all cost. No one would step up. Since during the playoffs Hockey the refs never call the late hits, Bure made the perfect descision ! Churla turned into a guost !!!

  • WELL SAID MAN YOUR RIGHT WOOOOOOT!!!

  • clean hit....

    syke

  • dont fuck with bure

  • don't FUCK with Pasha.

  • those canuck jersey were beautiful...both home and away...REMEMBER THE SMYTHE DIVISION!!!

  • churla deserved it

  • yep for sure !! Churla was the fucking tough player of dallas, he loved to fight, big contacts too. So, He was taller and bigger than the skinny pavel..

    What do his teammates thought when u see ur tough guy smashed by a russian elf?

    They bottled out !!

    Moreover Churla hit him very badly 30 secondes before., then he was too presomptuous to think that this angel face won't payback him.

    HUGE MISTAKE.

    Sometimes, giving shit to a smaller guy than you may be dangerous

  • Bure didn't need to fight, it was absolutly not his job on the ice. He was a goalscorer not a goon, but he had no fear, what do you expect from him? challenging Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis at the same time?

  • Damn dude ?

    Churla is your boyfriend or what???

    Carry a complaint to the supreme court !!!

    you say to me "give me a break" fucking idiot you first gave me shit with my post dating from January lmao fucking time waster

    I dont want to waste mine anymore to explain you how was hockey in 90's little boy

    So take it fucking easy lord of keyboard and go blow your goon

    im tired of those 19 years old kids

  • The guy actually has a point. If it was someone blindsiding Odjick you guys would be yelling at them for not having the stones to drop the mitts with Gino.

  • First off, don't tell us to lay off the pot. Second off, Churla's a pussy. Hes got big man syndrome and he fucked with the wrong dude. He deserved it.

  • It is extremely rare that someone gets hurt in a hockey fight. So that's not the reason he didn't fight him.

    If Bure had fought him, the Canucks best weapon would have been out for 5minutes, a pretty good trade for Churla.

    They'd get on the ice and Churla would start running him again.

    He took care of it the best possible way at the time, for how the game was played then.

    Pretty brutal elbow, but something had to be done, the referees should have taken control of things before that.

  • It was either Bure or Odjick answering the bell, Churla should be glad that it was Bure.

  • exaclty it was not his job to fight, but it wanst his job to go elbow the guy either!!

  • That's one thing many players in the NHL overlooked about Bure during the 90's, he wasn't the kind to take a hit then ignore it like many wingers these days do, his physical strength was nothing to scoff and he'd find a way to come back at you, even if it's a dirty elbow like that.

    His wrecklessness (such as this video) is what led to his unhealthy career end, had he cut down on being physical he'd probably still be playing today.
