- Since the national hockey leagues inception in 1917, the motto always was, and to some it still is “the bigger, the better”
in todays video boys, were gonna talk about someone who was never bigger than most, but you better believe he was better than most. A player who had one of the most memorable first games a career can have, despite not even recording a point, a former teammate cliff ronning described this player like the flash,“ive never seen such speed coming from a player in my life” “even people on the other bench, everyone on our team everyone stood up. I’ve never seen a guy skate that fast, that confident and go end-to-end. I don’t know if you’ll ever see it again how fast he skated. and today were gonna talk about how pavel bure became “the russian rocket”

Was Bure the greatest Vancouver Canuck of all time boys??
Also sorry for the weird glitch at 13:33, had to remove a tiny part due to copyright
Rockin my Bure (rangers lmao) jersey in Pittsburgh today… shame us ranger fans only got to root against him at his best.
Sorry Bobby Lu, Sedins, Naslund, Linden, Smyl, Tanti, Mclean, Petterson, Hughes, and Mogilny, but Bure is the best Canuck of all time.
Pavel Bure was without the doubt the best Canuck of all-time. You can say the Sedins, but it took two of them to be thought of in the same air as The Russian Rocket.
Absolutely not.......sedins, or linden, naslund, Bobby lou time plays into it, I would lean heavily on hank and Dan as goats for that franchise, Linden 3rd..........Bure didn't spend his career there so can't put him up there, would almost put kirk Maclean and Doug lister above him........pure talent wise maybe but not the greatest canuck maybe most talented to play for them, although this will possibly off Canucks fans, you could argue Messier or Mogilny as well
By a country mile, Bure never played with great players and had back to back 60G's. Still waiting for Boeser,Petey, Miller to even sniff 50...
Bure's goal in 94 to win game 7 in OT against Calgary was one of the most insane sporting moments I ever witnessed. Every time he touched the puck you felt like something could happen.
Wow where can i find that game
Imagine prime Bure with today's skates... wow.
And no two line pass
And no hooking, holding, and slashing!!!
Giving him a HOF center and winger like alot of the greats had the benefit of.
Yes that would be something !
But we will also be saying this about McDavid 25 to 30 yrs from now.
@@memo193 In 30 years, the young hockey fans will be telling us how McDavid was only good because he played in a low-talent era.
Him struggling at skating to the point he chose ball hockey is one of the most ironic twists of any stories
crazy that he struggled so much his own dad doubted him
You should look into his story. He completely. Left his father due to how he treated him..@@Scottybowman-ty3go
I think he was struggling as a teenager with a growth spurt and he didn't have the strength and ability to skate well. Unfortunately it was his knees that couldn't last anymore with the punishment on his body of playing at such a high level in the NHL.
Gilbert Perreault was also similar. He initially preferred street hockey to playing on ice.
Still my favorite player of all time.. to this day, the most exciting to watch of all time. All time.
I agree❤❤❤
100%
As a Flames fan, I had a love hate relationship with Pavel Bure. He really was one of the best players of his time.
Seeing bure in anything other than a Canucks jersey makes my skin crawl
We were famous for foir one thing really well no, 2 things: Losing our best players, and trading away draft picks (See Vaive, Neely, G Courtnall, Pavel. Jeff rown, Cliff Ronning. Not so bad the last ten years, but we did hang on to one guy for way too long. = jake Vee
@@glenw-xm5zfRonning got let go because he was a BIG WHINER. Pat Quinn got fed up with his complaining and let him go for nothing. That's the truth. Coyotes then took him.
@@anthonys3631 100% dead wribg
@@glenw-xm5zfHe got let go buy Pat Quinn cause he was a crybaby whiner, FACTS!
That can be blamed on canucks management who tried to sign him to a Canadian dollar contract because they didn't respect his intelligence.
Great video, covering the career of "The Russian Rocket" Pavel Bure. This is content that always speak to me!
Thank you !!!!
Sergie Federov, Alexander Mogilny, Pavel Bure, Nikolai Khabibulin, Alexi Kovalev, Sergei Zubov, what an incredible wave of tallents that came from same late-Soviet era!
i'm from van and i watched him from day one. from standing still he was full speed in 2 strides. plyometrics. he played in the days of clutching and grabbing. a d man could hook him around the waist and water ski behind him down the ice with no call. he would be blowing the doors off the likes of austin matthews and nathan mackinnon if he played in todays nhl. the greatest canuck ever.
Yep. Unchecked from coast to coast.
As a Winnipeg Jets fan...hurts to even CLICK on this video ..but I said ...I would give it a chance.
The Canucks should have won a Stanley cup with this Talent !
I still hate the rangers.. i loved bure so only cheered for the canucks for a few years lol go oilers!!
Love your content man - keep it up
Loved watching him play for the rangers. My dad works for the team so I was lucky enough to meet him a bunch of times. All star human being as well as one hell of a player. Thank you for the memories!
Great work. You are a superb sports writer.
Another amazing video
I love how like every Pavel highlight has defenders committing like 10 modern day penalties and he still scores with ease.
16:24 thats lidstrom .... no joke of defenseman
Best of all time, he was.
Bure is the only player other than Gretzky that got me up out of my seat in a live in person game. Unreal speed and ability. Easily the greatest Vancouver Canuck to wear the jersey.
Nah c'mon man Messier was the best(Sarcasm)
IDK how you only have 4k subs these vids are incredible
He was so much fun to watch, him and Jagr.
One of the greatest players ever! He was a beast on the ice!
No way! That honor goes to Messier!
The first shift he had as a Vancouver Canuck was a frenzied energy. The LEGEND was born. Pavel was the best Canuck of all time in my opinion. The Pacific Coliseum Arthur Griffiths * Hockey was fun. The proper Jerseys. Everything was right .
First, theres ladies also in here. I loved the russian rocket and had his poster on my door and still exists there lol he had silky mitts, my young hormones absolutely adored him!😊❤
My top 5 fav player possibly 2
The Vancouver Franchise and its organization did him dirty. Nothing new with the nucks. Still ongoing to this day. Watched him plenty of times and can honestly say he took folks out of their seats ! Myself included.
When the Canucks made Bure pay $50k of the portion of the transfer fee, so he could be released from Russia, I thought that was pretty cheesy. But Pavel more than made up for it when he got his big contract a few years later.
True, but that is not how it is today. That was a bad call by Quinn.
@@wellyforpm Pat Quinn had to have Pavel pay a part of the fee, so that the organization was not looked upon as being taken advantage in my opinion.. The club had to pull a lot of strings, spend a lot of time and resources, to figure out how to take advantage of the loop holes in the NHL draft. As he was not eligible initially because of his player status.
@@wellyforpm Quinn? Nah disagree with you here. Pavel loved and respected Pat Quinn. Their relationship was not toxic. You can insert Frank Griffiths Sr and family in here. You say it’s not bad today? Yeah I saw how Trevor linden, Luongo , and very other star that came this way were treated. Then there’s the current ownership which has personal problems of their own and how they treat their clients , business partners, contractors etc in the outside. I’ve had family work for them along with contractors I have close relationships with that says these guys are just plain out garbage.
@@InTheNow2020 agreed. Pavel and his family worked their asses off to get his released. I met Pavel more than several times and he was a great human being off the ice. Pleasant to be around with.
I have been to about a dozen games.Bure impressed me the most of all players.
my favorite playerr for sure
"Brown with a long pass to Pavel Bure, Bure in the clear, he shoots, he scores! Pavel Bure picked up a perfect pass, stick handled into the clear and beat Vernon at 2:20 of the second overtime! Canucks win the series 4 to 3" The epic Jim Robson call from 94.
Such talent!
My favorite player ever
. LOL you said his skating had never been seen before!!!! I think you missed Bobby Orr #4 Boston Bruins. The best defenseman ever!!!!!!!!!
We got him at the very end. Had he been able to stay healthy, no doubt he would have broken Gretzkys record. Never seen a player score so effortlessly...
Still remember his first game. He didn't score but he was so much faster than everyone.
living legend
career was cut short but he is the most skilled russian player of all time, yes that includes ovechkin im sorry
My 2 year old Jack Russell is named Bure :-) My phone numbers last 4 digits also spell Bure.
Bure would say dasvedayna comrade everytime he blitzed past defenders
Bure would haunt my beloved Jets way too many times
Cliff Ronning is the one who did in the Jets. I still remember his goal back in I think '93
@@glenw-xm5zf that was Geoff Courtnall
@@Hoovie9596 I was at the game. I think courtnall did them in in overtime, but Cliff got the GTG in reg time. Kind of vague now. Like 30 years ago
@@glenw-xm5zf I too was at the game. There was a no goal call right when time expired
Bure is the GOAT of goal scoring
Gretzky GOAT period. Pavel in the top 5
i wonder how forwards today would do with defense that was able to play like they could in this era
In Nagano he scored 5 goals in the semis against the Finns. 5 goals in a game, in Olympic semiifinals, let it sink in. He didnt score against Hašek in the finals.
Weird audio glitch at 13:32
If he had played under the new rules (no more two lines pass) he'd likely have doubled his totals.
Bure could of played Anakin Skywalker in episodes 2 and 3 easily lmao
4:14. His mom is gorgeous
Would be sick if they found rocket 2.0
Well we got Boeser and EP 40. 2 playoff games NO GOALS
If I had been born just a few years earlier this man single handedly would have made me a Canucks fan instead of a Blackhawks fan...I am from Chicagoland.
That would have sucked for you bro 😂
That would have been rough from 07-2012 lol
Tried hard due to acceleration. Two legged knee joint. Acl mcl? Just one that pushes to not look at the goal.
good luck finding rocket richard highlights
holy shit - he looks just like his dad
Rocket lmfbo😅😅
Bure NEVER threatened to sit out in the playoffs, that was a BS story, leaked by canucks management to put pressure on him in the contract dealings, I remember the story in the province. It was all a lie. Canucks management is the reason that Bure ended up leaving, he could have been a Canuck for life.
No love for his brother valarie? He was sick too
he never came close to his bro. He's best known as Candace Cameron's husband.
@@wellyforpm He was a decent 3 liner. and lucked out with Candace.
Damn bure had a brother? Crazy
Bro, what? Dude had a 10 year NHL career and put up like 0.75 points per game. How did you miss that?
Yeah...valerie
Best number 10 after Lafleur
LOL is it raining in Montreal today?
Whatever production effect or filter you used in this video should be discontinued. It’s torturous to watch and distracts from your storytelling. Otherwise, keep up the great work. Loved the Barnaby rewind.
Noted brotha🙏 I always appreciate the feedback, always tryna improve with each vid!
I was ready to subscribe -until I heard the viewer addressed as "boys". In case you haven't noticed - women watch and play - too!
My bad aha, kinda just an intro I have for all my vids
Him struggling at skating to the point he chose ball hockey is one of the most ironic twists of any stories
