73 is pretty young for someone who made fitness a high priority in their life.

Was he actually a fitness consultant for the team or just for Bure?

He was ahead of his time when it came to fitness and proper training for hockey. RIP.

Growing up playing hockey I was lucky enough to have Vladimir drop in a few times to train us off-ice in strength and agility (one of the parents on the team helped with the Canucks training staff). He was a super nice dude and super funny, and the workouts were *brutal*. RIP.

I bet neither of the boys went to his funeral, they were estranged for a long time.
