“To get the fans back they have to play well and to me, I like to go and see some superstars. I’m not a big fan of golf but when I know Tiger Woods is playing I’m going to watch him. I like Dwayne Wade because it’s attractive to have a superstar because a superstar gives you something other people can’t.’‘

“I love the breakaways, penalty shots, the shootouts.  That’s what they did in the World Cup and we should do in the playoffs, too, instead of playing until 3 a.m. Even if it’s 0-0, people get excited for the shootout.’‘

-Pavel Bure on the Panthers and the shootout.  More from Harvey Fialkov at the Sun-Sentinel.

Pavel Bure Will Be Watching The Olympics

from the CP via NHL.com,

The Olympic men’s hockey tournament in Vancouver is going to be a different experience for Pavel Bure.

It will be the first time since NHLers started participating in the Games that the Russian Rocket won’t be involved with the national team. Bure played for Russia in 1998 and 2002 and served as the team’s general manager in 2006.

With Vladislav Tretiak now in charge of the Russian squad, Bure’s role in 2010 will be that of a spectator. And just like most hockey fans, he’s already looking forward to the event.

“I think it’s the best tournament,” Bure told The Canadian Press on Thursday. “All of the best superstars can go and participate, that’s why it’s really hard to win this tournament. All the teams are pretty even. You need a little bit (of) luck in this tournament and all the games are really important because you lose one game and you’re out.

“It’s really interesting for fans and it’s a great promotion for hockey in general around the globe.”

Over at the AVSForums, a thread headline reads... “Russian Rocket Fails To Put Dish Network Satellite In Proper Orbit.”

Only a hockey fan would reply… “When I saw this thread I thought of Pavel Bure.”
