Pavel Bure's recent acceptance of the position as the General Manager of the Russian Hockey team for the Turin Olympic Games (2006) was an official retirement of his hockey playing career.

He has now not played any competitive hockey, nor even skated for close to two years.

We, the fans of Pavel Bure, wish to thank him for his brilliant career to this date, and look forward to the rewards of his leadership skills off the ice as well.

Thank you Pavel!

PBFC.
