  • get this man into the hall. jesus.

  • meh, im faster.

  • Hands down the fastest skater in the NHL...EVER.

  • Bure makes Ryan Kesler look like Vladimir Krutov when he skates..

  • @cgasucks kesler and bure very similiar style

  • @tubedude101 Yes...but you have to agree that Bure is a way faster skater than him...

  • He´s the reason I am a Canucks-fan today! Love his skill with the stick and his speed..

    @vancouverispathetic : Could not agree more.... Pretty much every NHL jersey looked better in the 90:s.. The new green/blue doesn´t look bad but it would be awesome to see the classic black/wellow/white again!

  • FUCK YOU PAT QUINN FOR TREATING BURE LIKE SHIT! FUCK YOU!!!

  • @zonkedforlife2 Quinn treated a lot of players like shit there poster. He even fucked up us not getting Gretzky to sign here in 94 when Gretzky wanted to come here and centre a line with Bure and Mogilny. He let Cliff Ronning go for fuck all too,not even a draft pick,go figure. Heard through a accurate source that Pavel and Gino both had cocaine addiction problems that were never publicly made.

  • @TheGeorgecostanza ya, people give Quinn too much credit, he may be an alright coach but he obviously wasn't a people person

  • @zonkedforlife2 He was not a good people person poster,you hit the nail on the head. Heard through the grapevine that Gino got Bure hooked on cocaine and they were two big coke heads. It was never mentioned to the media,it was kept top secret. Quinn stated regarding Gretzky possibly signing here in 94 that 'he didn't want someone bigger than him running the team"! What a total bonehead move that was. Even Tony Gallagher called Canuck management "Dorca Bay" for blowing that opportunity!

  • Bure was so much fun to watch. Easily the best the Canucks have ever had. I also prefer those old uniforms. Bring them back and ditch the ugly blue and green combination.

  • imagine the greatest players on one team EPIC

  • imagine him like that playing on the sedins line, oh my

  • Bitch

  • Both the sedins are better

  • @summerprince2010 I respectfully disagree, Bure had a very different skill set than either Sedin + it was a different game so to speak back then so it's hard to compare who's 'better' but IMO if it came down to pure raw talent than I'd say Bure hands down......very tough call though...

  • @summerprince2010 they have things caled loyalty pride and honor, i'll take them over this peice of garbage anyday

  • whats the intro music?

  • The greatest hockey player in history! The Best!

  • neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee OW!

  • to bad he didnt like vancouver

  • @str8rippon Too bad team managers didn't like him. His first two years contract was 500 000 USD per year (52% taxes). He was a super star after first year. And team managers didn't want to increase his payments. Anyone would dislike Canucks.

  • @TYNGD the managers liked him they just refused to give him money that was on his contract, so he had a right to be mad,

  • When he was certain to be traded from Vancouver, they showed a clip of his last 50 goal season on BCTV (Global). Does anyone know where to find this footage?

  • Yeah Bure was a great player but he wasn't a team player and on those solo attempts he didnt think of the play which did cost the Canucks and every team Bure played on that's why he never won a Stanley Cup.

  • @GeorgeLCostanza He had became far less selfish as his career went on. And why wouldn't he pass it off, after all, every player on the team was trying to get it to him anyways so he knew he would get it back.

  • Pavel Bure is so frikin fast. he's like the uncocky Ovechkin. Mason Raymond kinda looks like bure. One day He'll be the new Bure. Go Raymond

  • im glad he likes our ooneyform ^^

  • why the fuck isn't he being inducted into the Ring Of Honor?!?!?!?!?!?! Best player in Canucks history!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @RE4713 No way. He was definataly an amazing player, but not the best the Canucks have had.

  • @ironmaidenforlife123 haha yeah I like am totally opposite right now, now learning how he left city, understand why he isnt being honoured.....I honestly can't say who the best player in Canucks history is....do we base it on scoring or awards? In my opinion, Sedins are going to go down as the best canuck players ever.

  • @RE4713 Lol yeah, the Sedins are going to do great thing for Van City, but I think you are overlooking the great Trevor Linden. By far the best Canuck in history, not for his goal scoring abilities, but for how he played, his gentlemanly conduct, and most important of all, his leadership. Fuck Naslund, he was not a leader, Linden should have retired as Captain, but they were too busy being dazzled by Nazzy.

  • @ironmaidenforlife123 yes that is true too...without him, there wud be no 94' cup run...his leadership and how he played the game was impeccable! And I agree! Linden should have retired as Captain...

  • why did I think his number was number 9???!!! I know its 10 but I thought it was 9 one time....

  • Alexnder Semin on the Capitals reminds me of Pavel Bure.

  • All of the exciting hockey players retire early due to injury. Bobby Orr and Bure are 2 prime examples. Orr wouldve broke every record if he wasn't so reckless, same with pavel. Gretzky came in the right place at the right time. If Bure came in 1980 with the oilers, Bure would outscored Gretzky at least in the goals department.

  • turfturbo,

    ya gretzky did have the best stats of all-time, was he the best goal scorer? probably not (mike bossy) was he the best overall player? maybe but Mario is right there if not better. Pavel Bure was without a doubt the most exciting player to play the game by far. I'm not sure if your from Vancouver or have ever seen bure play live but I'm born and raised in van and it was insane to see 15000 fans stand up when bure touched the puck. it is something that I don't I'll see for a long tim

  • in his rookie season he might have been the fastest player in the NHL. When he put on muscle in seasons 2 and 3 he slowed down a lot but was still very fast. In his rookie season he was unearthly fast

  • The best player of all time...

  • @DBlockn05 Thats a bit much. He had 110 pts as his highest season ever. Gretzky did 215pts one year and over 200 pts 4 times and was a more well rounded team oriented player while he was at it. I dont recall Bure being out on the PK too often lol. you could argue for Lemieux at his best but Bure wasnt close.

  • @turfturbo Your missing one important stat. Bure has the highest points per game average of all time! If he stayed healthy he would have many records!

  • @pitchingwedge1 You pulling these "stats" out of your butt? unfortunately for you all Stats are readily available. Bure has no points per game record and isnt even close. Single season record : Bure 1.32 points per game, Gretzky 2.68 points per game. Career record: Bure 1.109 points per game, Gretzky 1.92 points per game. Theres plenty of places on the web to check those stats.

  • NHL was too dirty fo him...The Cunuckleheads didnt protect him. Wrong timing...If he stayed in Russia he would be their Wayne Gretzky, scoring records and all.

  • if it wasnt for all the knee problems he would have been statistically one of te best players ever no doubt. he did alot for the canucks and alot for this city, he's still one of the best players ever no doubt

  • If you think he was amazing in nyr you should have seen him for the nucks

  • he was amazing in new york

  • Didnt he cry his way out of vancouver, then burkie was pissed

  • @GoPensGo377 ahahahaha crosby's a bitch -,-

  • @Br3nd3n14 yeah coming from a guy who likes pavel bure who bitched his way outta van city nice

  • He was the first athlete I hated and loved at the same time. What speed...

  • 90s Hockey Rules! Teemu Selänne, Jaromir Jagr and ofc Pavel Bure!

  • i still wish he was playing for the canucks

  • i remember watching games with bure and mogilny and the other team would just stand around and watch them !!!

  • @Beltskis

    Ovechkin is simple and nothing compare to Bure. Bure was smart and intelligent player with great technique and unbelievable speed. Ovechkin can just stupidly shot. That all about him.

  • @RomeoMaestro im not talking about how smart or intelligent ovechkin is compared to bure, im talking about how dynamic ovechkin is compared to bure.

  • @Beltskis

    I meant smart as a player not a person.

  • @RomeoMaestro im not even talking about how smart he is

  • holy shiittt why isnt he in the canucks anymore now?! :(

    he was an amazing assett to the vancouver canucks.

  • It seems like he was the alex ovechkin before alex ovechkin

  • @Beltskis

    Ovechkin is simple and nothing compare to Bure. Bure was smart and intelligent player with great technique and unbelievable speed. Ovechkin can just stupidly shot. That all about him.

  • Fuck u guy that can't skate and probably hasn't got laid since the last time your grandma fell on u. Hockey isn't a game, it's life

  • One of the all time great hockey talents, absolutely. He electrified the crowds and for good reason.

  • wow, i cant fuckin believe yall watchin diz shit 4 life,

    get some other fuckin life than eyecandied this so-called game

  • Luv bure so much, fanatic 4ever

  • that goal in OT against calgary in game 7 is the reason i started following hockey

  • as far as players in their prime. bure has too be one of the best EVER. sadly his career was cut short so he will never be put up there with the all time greats.

  • His retaliatory hit on Shane Churla (Dallas) in that playoff game was my favorite. Nobody tried to intimidate him after that.

  • evander... you mean NE division cuz hes gunna get drafted by the Bruins :-D

  • Don't worry canuck fans, You'll see another dynamic, fast as hell goal scoring Right Winger again playing in the North West Division. He's getting drafted 1st overall this summer and You'll enjoy him lighting up the NW for years.......hint!, hint! ;)

  • yeah right. Nobody compares to bure

  • Bure reminds me of Ove sometimes, very skilled, very dominating. Not not as much of puck hog as Ovechkin, Ove motto "give me the puck" Bure motto "give me the puck if it is the best chance to get a goal". Nucks are doing great right now. Henric with most points overall, #2 in power rankings, that does not really mean much though. Go Canucks.

  • @konachai1 agreed, exactly what i was thinking when i watched this.

  • i luv u

  • look at ducan keith skate .. hes a dman but still alot of resemblance to pavel i know id watch him every friday night in penticton as a panther coast to coast man wow

  • I ll never forget! i loved his style! canucks forever! though im czech ;]

  • The best player ever for the canuck!

  • he's not one of the fastest skaters, he is the fastest skater in nhl history.

  • excellent^^

  • Peter Bondra is faster without the puck.

  • HELLS YEA

  • If it wasn't for the injuries, he's easily in the conversation of top 10 goal scorers of all time

  • he already is in the conversation. his goals per game average is 3rd all time

  • Where IS PAVEL?

  • sami kapanen and pavel bure - the fastest players in nhl history

  • hes defintly one of the fastesy in the nhl

  • well we dont know that lets just say nhl

  • i fucking love the old school Canucks, and the old colors. i still don't like the new "Orca bay" logo.

  • Yea they really shouldn't have changed it.

  • i don't like the stick in rink one either

  • Best advice I ever heard was from Alexei Kovalev speaking to the camera. He was asked what he did to become such a great stickhandler. He said something like: "You just have to pick up a puck and do whatever crosses your mind. Someday, you will be able to do it."

    It is not much about skills as much as about creativity; these guys simply see an opening you can you too see if you lift your head. The difference is that they will do something unexpected to get there.

  • Even if it seems that your idea must be rated as a top five contender of the worst ideas, it migth actually work.

    I tried many stupid dekes and I am not any near to be a skillful player. But, they almost all worked. From using the Lacross move to fake a dmen to deking through couple guys by playing hacky with the puck; I have even flipped the puck like a pancake to deke the first guy and continued with the puck on my blade.

    Sounds insaly stupid and easy to counter, but can you expect that?

  • These guys do things people don't think they will do; things they don't even consider. It's not about playign the greatest and most complex deke, it's about doing the one they will not see coming.

    The moral of the story: If you don't try, you have 100% chance of failure.

  • watching that Calgary breakaway goal gives me chills

  • come on drops back to the skate up to the forhand... to sick

  • He was a great player, but he was an ass in real life. I was about 12 years old at the time asking for his autograph and he told me to F off. Ever since then I hated him. Linden was a way better Canuck than Pavel!

  • No doubt he was a great player, but he also had sick style, which made him even better

  • As a kid growing up thru the 90's. Pavel Bure was my fav of all time!!!

  • bure could won canucks a stanley cup. If he had longer career.

  • lol good ole Cliff Ronning getting his two cents in...from #10 to # 96 ill always be a Bure fan...Go Canucks Go......

  • We gotta take the fucking cup one of these years man this is bullshit, canuck's have never won, only the millionaires.

  • i no weve gotta get one just once please show those F***in american teams that canada's still got it in them go nux go

  • go nux go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we r all canucks

  • Not just the greatest canuck ever, the greatest in the world! ;)

  • bure is great...but I agree with seekn destroy...fedorov is the best skater in modern hockey history

  • THE GREATEST EVER!!!!!!

  • The point is that Europe has much better skaters than Northern America (including Canada), Europe has a very fastest players such as legend Pavel Bure, now Alex Ovechkin, Slovak Marian Gaborik is very fast, even though Canada has no very fastest players have talent but turn to Technology, Sidney Crosby (although I do not like him) because he is the best center throughout the NHL, but a Russian player is an exception, Pavel Datsyuk think is second best center NHL,

  • you are a moron. Best skaters all time. Paul Coffey, Bobby Orr Both Canadian.

  • This is only a fraction of what is Europe

  • that is only .0009% of the canadian player population.

    You may want to tone down the ignorance and realize that both areas have great skaters. Having played with European players before i can agree they are great. But having seen how good Canadian players are i can also argue your point.

    Go to canada first.

  • those players are both players that played in the time when there were no europeons allowed

  • wrong. Coffey played when Euros were around. He is still considered the best skater ever. shows how little you know.

  • well not orr and coffey isnt much better than players like gaborik and bure

  • LMAO you are a complete moron. He is a hall of famer. where is gaborik? he scored i believe more goals then gaborik has and coffey was a defencemen.

    stop thinking like a moron.

    coffey and orr are two of the best. Orr being the best player ever.

    and technically orr did play against euros in the canada cup, and against stan mikita.

  • i thought we were talking about skaters wtf are you talking about best players for

  • he is still the best skater to ever lace them up (coffey).

    next time chose your words better instead of saying he is not much better then them.

    skating has to do with power, speed, and being smooth. that is what coffey was. gaborik does not look that smooth to me when he skates. bure does but he still was not a better skater then coffey.

  • lets continue to argue but make sure you know what you are talking about.

    i love the russian rocket. but any idiot who says coffey was not much better then players like gaborik and bure is a complete and utter moron.

    coffey is probably the second best offensive defencemen only behind orr.

  • i though we were talkin about skaters wtf are you talkin about best players for

  • 1. Sergei Fedorov, Ana 111 2. S. Niedermayer, NJ 66 3. Mike Modano, Dal 58 4. Marian Gaborik, Min 31 5. A. Mogilny, Tor 23 6. Pavel Bure, NYR 19 7. Paul Kariya, Col 10 8. Martin St-Louis, TB 9 9. Teemu Selanne, Col 8 10. Todd Marchant, Clb 8 that was a while ago (after coffey retired). even when it comes to skaters (north america, europe).
  • thats a pretty good list but i think gaborik is the best noone relizes because hes always injured

  • gaborik is the fastest (right now, cogliano is faster though)

    over all best skater ever is coffey. fastest ever mike gartner, best acceleration, pavel bure.

  • its pretty close hard to say hell we've never even seen the original "rocket"

  • ive seen bure and coffey play. no doubt bure was a speedy bastard haha. but coffey was just so smooth man.

    either way its fun to watch.

  • and yet canada has produced the BEST goalies in the game?

  • Funny how all the fans believe Sydney Crosby to be the best Center or one of the best in the league. although good he isn't. A survey were all the nhl skaters (or approximately half) had to vote for the numbr one player. Number one was Ovechkin (almost half the votes). Number two was ether lindstrom or datsyuk i forget then malkin and all the way in 8th with 1.9% of votes..was Sydney crosby.

  • whos malkin? heres the order for centers

    1.malkin

    2.datsyuk

    3.crosby

  • Most exiting player ever to play the game!!!!!

  • my travel team is the blue and green canucks jersey ans sox xcept with a different logo

  • too bad he was in nhl for short period

  • don't really like the Canucks but with all due respect to Bure, he should be in the Hockey Hall of Fame

  • he was amazing to watch

  • he was like the Russian Wayne Gretzky

  • Canucks should retire his #10. He was their first real superstar, and their most exciting player by far. They'll never have anyone else like him.

  • Yes they should retire his #. Even tho he wasn't here long and he had a short NHL career he was one of the most exciting in the NHL of that time.

  • He would of been the best of all time most goals for sure. Gretzky said he could of been the best of all time.

  • i bet if it wasn't for the Knee injury he would have been one of the best !

  • how Pavel hasn't been included in the Hall of Fame yet is beyond me.

  • 1:49

    Uh, excuse me, gotta go.

    Wow.

  • For everyone comparing ovechkin to bure don't, bure rocked in the league when it was more defensive minded now the league is more offensive minded

  • If it wasn't for his knee injury his career wouldn't have been cut so short. If he played as many games as some of the greats he would be Top 10 best ever my opinion.

  • Without a doubt...without a doubt. Still he managed to score over 400 goals, man, I await another great player with hands and speed like him to appear, a pure goal score.

  • bure was awesome in his prime. but hands down trevor linden best canuck of all time.

  • agreed,all due respect to bure though.

  • 2:03 = sick shit

  • "look ima gonna score 60 goals and he went out and did" boy did he ever

  • eh! dell111 go to hell

  • Wow. We need players like this again.

  • We have players like that now. He's called Ovechkin. Lol.

  • Bure was the shit, canucks are gay now

  • jeez

    i don't like the old yellow jerseys

  • Pavel Bure was just so fast its unbelievble. Only the good players can make moves while moving their feet hard. Ovechkin, Crosby, Bure, Lemieux can all skate their hardest while dangling well and most nhl players can barely do one of them. Bure would be all time scorer if he could finish I must add

  • I miss pavel bure -.-

  • kinda funny lookin' at Pavel wearing the number #96

  • yeah, i heard it was because Esa Tikkanen wore 10 and when he joined he got it because of his senority.

    96 is a cool number though, id wear that Bure jersey for reals, its rare too!

  • Alex Burrows will do a lot more for us than Pavel. No 14 is well-rounded player. Team guy. All the things that Pavel wasn't. (amd Burrows= just as fast)

    BUT:

    How come Bure sat in California and had only one visit from Canucks brass in 6 months?? HUH?? Quinn was dumb. Nice guy, but dumb as a post

  • I completely agree with you about Burrows, I hope Vancouver finds more players like him

  • Where are all those jerks who were screaming to have our scouts fired? could be that Quinn, Burke, Nonis never listened to them (scouts)

    We are growing our own through the draft and player development. thank god Gillis didn't trade away our picks for 09

  • When he bailed on the team, I took a sudden dislike to him. sorry, bure fans.

    I will agree that he was fun to watch. Ovechkin but 2 sizes smaller., Ovech is better w/o the puck, though.

    Defence can be taught, but offence skill is a gift

  • That was by far my favorite canuck jersey,

    Gah! i miss it.

  • yeah he was great but he turned his back on the vancouver canucks because he got too cocky for his own good

  • i agree.. too bad to- i dont think he realized how good he had it here. great players in vancouver are like rock stars here- i guess though at that time with no cap teams like the rangers were more attractive with their massive pay. i was 8 when he was playin here, was never more excited watching a player-i get the same feeling watching sidney now. i dont mind if we dont win a cup as long as we play exciting offencive hockey, we lost that last year- im glad wer on our way back to that

  • Comment removed

  • THis still puzzles me to this day. I think burke and Quinn said/did somethings that peed him off. Rumour has it that Messier 'touched' him and Gino slammed Messier into the wall. Later; Gino = gone, Mess here to make the mess he made

    Also, see my earlier post about when Bure first got here.

    Finally, remember that agents can cause players to do bizarre things

  • The comparison to Pavel Datsyuk is completely off base, because Datsyuk is a Selke candidate every year. Pavel was never mistaken for a checker. I actually remember him being criticized for cheating up the ice waiting for a breakaway pass. No, Pavel Bure didn't have any defensive instincts in his body. Nor was he a great passer. What he had was the unsurpassed ability to coordinate his hands with his lightning speed. Nobody, except for maybe Ovechkin, today can do what he did.

  • did bure score when he shot between the legs?

  • no he didn't

  • Pavel

     scored goals when standing on his head

  • comparing mason raymond (who?) to Pavel Bure is a big insult to Pavel.

  • BURE 4 LIFE!!

  • One of the greatest of this world.

  • to bad he had to have bad knees he was amazing

  • bure owns but dont know why he didnt like vancouver = {}

  • he loved vancouver
