Early life

Valeri Bure was born in Moscow, Soviet Union, on June 13, 1974. He is the younger brother of Vladimir and Tatiana Bure. Vladimir, whose family came from Furna, Switzerland, was an Olympic swimmer who earned four medals for the Soviet Union at three Olympic Games between 1968 and 1976. Bure's family had a rich past: his ancestors made exquisite watches for Russian tsars from 1815 to 1917, and as artisans of the imperial family, he was heir to a privileged position.

Bure was around nine years old when his parents separated. In 1991, he joined his father and brother, Pavel, in heading to North America, where his elder sibling, the Vancouver Canucks, began a National Hockey League (NHL) career. His mother arrived two months later. They arrived in Los Angeles where Vladimir began to train and guide both Valeri and Pavel in hockey and physical fitness. However, both father and their half-sister, Katya, were disengaged from their father by 1998. Neither brother has given a reason for the break.

Personal life

Candace Cameron, a Bure married actress, married actress Candace Cameron on June 22, 1996. They were unveiled at a charity hockey game in 1994 by Cameron's Full House castmate Dave Coulier. The couple has three children: Natasha (b.) Lev Lev (b. 1998) and his sons Lev (b.) Maksim (b. 2000) and Maksim (b.) (2002, Japan). Bure became an American citizen in December 2001. Bure cited his family as the reason he dropped out of hockey in 2005. He felt he could return from his surgery but wanted to spend time with his children and encourage his wife to resume acting. Bure and his family are Christians.

By 1998, Valeri and his older brother Pavel were estranged from their father, Vladimir Bure, along with Julia Bure, his second wife, and their half-sister Katya. There was no reason for the split by either brother.

Bure and his wife opened The Milk and Honey Café in Florida in 2007, but the family later moved to California, but the restaurant was no longer available. Bure Family Wines, a Napa Valley winery, is operated by the group. "I fell in love with the behind-the-scenes work and being able to start from the vineyard and put it into a bottle early in his NHL career." It's an amazing process." Bure modified the Russian imperial seal that his great-grandfather stamped on his watches to use as his company's logo.

Bure returned to the ice in 2010 as a contestant on the second season of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's figure skating reality show Battle of the Blades. The series was based on a competition that pitted a veteran hockey player against a figure skater. Ekaterina Gordeeva, Bure's partner, was a student at the University of On Thursday, Ekaterina Gordeeva was the prime minister of Bure. The pair won the competition and received a $100,000 award for charities of their choice. Bure's donation to Compassion Canada was made.

Valeri Bure Career

Playing career

Before leaving the Soviet Union, Bure appeared in three games with HC CSKA Moscow of the Soviet Championship League during the 1990-91 season. Bure, who was 17 years old at the time, was eligible to play junior hockey after arriving in North America, and he joined the Spokane Chiefs of the Western Hockey League (WHL). He became the first Russian player to play in the league's history by doing so. He joined the team a year before the Canadian Hockey League, in which the WHL is a member of the Canadian Hockey League, established an import draft.

Bure's first season in the WHL, he scored 49 points in 53 games from 1991 to 1992 for the Chiefs. At the 1992 NHL Entry Draft, the Montreal Canadiens selected him for their second round pick, 33rd overall. Bure was praised by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau as a good skater. The Bureau's review noted: "very smart around the net; good passer, playmaker." Good shot, quick release. The game will be played, but it will take a while. "Good competitor" is a good one. Bure led his squad and finished second overall in WHL scoring with 147 points in 1992–93. His 68 goals in the season this season are still a franchise record for the Chiefs. He was selected to the WHL's West Division First All-Star Team. Bure attended Montreal's training camp prior to the 1993–94 season, but he was then called back to his junior team. In his last season in the WHL, he had 102 points and was named to the Second All-Star Team, earning him 102 points. Bure had 298 points in three seasons with Spokane and currently ranks fourth on the Chiefs' all-time scoring list.

Bure spent the majority of the season with Montreal's American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Fredericton Canadiens, after turning professional in 1994-1995. In 45 games for the club, he had scored 23 goals and 48 points. Bure was recalled to Montreal late in the season and made his NHL debut against the New York Islanders on February 28, 1995. He scored against Pittsburgh goaltender Wendell Young of the Pittsburgh Penguins two weeks later on March 15, his first goal against him was two weeks later. Bure scored 3 goals and contributed an assist in 24 games with Montreal. Valeri struggled to live up to the expectations placed on him after being in his brother's shadow. In his first full season in Montreal, 1995–96, he scored 22 goals and 42 points but only 14 goals the following season. He suffered with injuries this season; two concussions and a kidney injury limited him to 64 games, 13 less than the previous season.

Bure, who stood five foot, ten inches (178 cm) tall, was a smaller player in the NHL. Saku Koivu (five foot ten) and Oleg Petrov (five foot nine) were both diminutive, and the threesome were regarded as the "Smurf line" in Montreal. Bure was traded after playing 50 games for the Canadiens from 1997 to 1998. In a swap for Jonas Höglund and Zarley Zalapski, he was sent to the Calgary Flames on February 1, 1998. Bure was applauded by his father on the west coast as well as increased opportunities after joining a young Flames team. In one of his first games against the Edmonton Oilers, he scored his first hat trick in his career. Bure played in 16 games with the Flames this season, scoring 38 points in 66 games combined between Montreal and Calgary.

Bure's offensive skills came as he became one of the team's top scorers in Calgary. His totals of 26 goals and 53 points in 1998-1999 were his third best on the team; Bure scored the game-winning goal in four consecutive victories for Calgary at one point in the season. The departure of Flames' star Theoren Fleury put pressure on Bure to be an offensive leader from 1999-2000, and he reacted to become one of the NHL's early scoring leaders. He made a good show by posting his speed and skating skills and was eighth in league scoring by mid-December. Bure was selected to the World team at the 2000 All-Star Game, where he and his brother played on a line together. In a 9–4 victory over North America, Pavel was voted the most valuable player of the game by scoring three goals, two of whom were assisted by Valeri. Bure was the Flames' top goal (35) and points (75, 14th overall in the NHL) in the season, and she was the only player on the team to play in all 82 games. Pavel Bure scored 58 goals for the Florida Panthers, and the brothers' total of 93 goals set a new NHL record for a set of siblings.

Despite the fact that his offensive numbers dropped in 2000-2001, Bure's 27 goals ranked second on the team to Jarome Iginla's 31 and finished third with 55 points. He was embroiled in a power dispute with his mentors, first Don Hay who was fired mid-season and then Greg Gilbert, who wanted him to play a more defensive-minded game. Bure continued to adapt, and Gilbert kept them out of the Flames lineup at one point. Bure was said to have asked for a trade out of Calgary, and the Florida Panthers (who had acquired Pavel), the Buffalo Sabres, and the New York Rangers were among the teams showing an interest in his services. Bure and Jason Wiemer were traded by the Flames alongside Rob Niedermayer and a second-round draft pick on June 24, 2001.

Bure was a restricted free agent after his term had ended. Bure did not sign until late September, and he was unable to reach an understanding with the Panthers on salary. He was held out from Florida's training camp for a brief period of time until the 2001–02 season. Bure's Panthers career was interrupted by injuries, beginning with a knee injury that had been bothering him before the season progressed as he played his first games of the season. Bure missed 37 games while recovering after testing revealed bruised to his right knee that required arthroscopic surgery to fix; Bure's season ended in mid-March as the Panthers had fallen out of playoff contention due to a second knee injury. By that time, his brother had already been sold, and the Panthers were already making Valerie available in case of trades. He played in only 31 games and gained 18 points.

Bure stayed with the Panthers through the 2002-03 season, but his year was marred by an offensive slump. After Keith Primeau slashed him during an early December match against the Philadelphia Flyers, he was also hindered by a hairline fracture to his wrist. Bure was traded by the St. Louis Blues to defenceman Mike Van Ryn in 46 games for Florida, with only 5 goals and 26 points in 46 games. Bure was kept out of the Blues lineup for a good deal of the remainder of the season due to another knee injury, this time a strained ligament. In five regular season and six post-season games for St. Louis, he scored two assists each. Bure was on waivers during the season, and the Blues recalled him back to Florida after being claimed by the Panthers.

Bure was one of the Panthers' offensive leaders in 2003–04. He was out of shape for the first time in two seasons. For the fifth time in his NHL career, he scored 20 goals in his NHL career, and Florida's top scorer with 45 points as the season's trade deadline approached. However, Bure was traded to the Dallas Stars in exchange for Drew Bagnall and a draft pick, as the Panthers were out of playoff contention. Bure was drafted on the Stars' top line with Mike Modano and Jere Lehtinen, and he had 7 points in 13 games to end the regular season. In five playoff games, Bure had three assists.

Bure, an unrestricted free agent after the 2004 playoffs, did not play anywhere in 2004-05 as a whole NHL season was cancelled due to a labour dispute. When the league first began operations in 2005, he signed a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Kings for the 2005–06 season. He has never played for the Kings in a regular season game. A back injury suffered during the pre-season, which was initially described as "soreness," kept him out of the regular lineup. Bure missed the entire season due to his injury and two surgeries on his hip. Following the operations, he decided to retire at the age of 31.

Bure made his international debut with the Russian national junior team at the 1994 World Junior Championships. With eight points in six games, he was the leading scorer of the bronze medal-winning Russians and was named to the tournament's All-Star Team. Bure first played for the senior team in 1996, scoring three goals in six competitions at the 1994 World Championship in a fifth-place effort.

Bure played in his first two Olympic Games in 1998 after appearing in one game at the inaugural World Cup of Hockey in 1996. It was the first time he played with his brother Pavel since they were briefly teammates with CSKA Moscow in 1991. Valeri scored one goal in the tournament, and Russia advanced to the gold medal game. After being locked out by Dominik Haek and the Czech Republic, they settled for the silver medal. Bure has returned to the Salt Lake Games in 2002. Russia gained the bronze medal after he scored a goal in the tournament. Russia invited him to participate in the 2004 World Cup of Hockey, but Bure declined to play due to a lack of suitable insurance in the case of injury.
