What would Pavel Bure's career look like if never got injured and what would his totals be, what awards would he have and where would rank all time on the goals list
how long do u think his consistency/longevity would have lasted?Might have won another goal scoring title. Probably not much else as far as awards go unless you count all-star nods. As far as goal totals, 600, maybe 700, assuming he also has a longer career.
It wouldn't have had to be otherworldly. If we cut out injuries in the career he had, I think you can easily get him to 500. If he remains a 35-40 goal scorer into his mid-30s, that's probably another ~150 goals. So, if he has a decent wind down, he's a 600-650. Good longevity, playing to his late 30s, or maybe to 40 could get him to 700 I think.how long do u think his consistency/longevity would have lasted?
Hmm idk.I don't see him doing worse than Selanne.
I'd say that's very pessimistic. Bure who doesn't have knee injuries and usually plays a full season has very good odds of leading the NHL in goals in any of 1997, 1998 (played the full season but was not as explosive as he had been prior to knee issues), and 1999. If Bure played the full 82 games in 2000, especially if it's a healthier Bure than the actual one who did play in 2000, he very likely hits 100 points and gets the Art Ross and Hart.Might have won another goal scoring title. Probably not much else as far as awards go unless you count all-star nods.
Hmm idk.
I feel like Bure was more of a physical freak than Selanne. Faster, stronger, better shot...
I'm not sure a mid to late 30s Bure would have aged as gracefully as Selanne, who imo, was more reliant on his smarts.
All he accomplished without an elite center is amazing
Without any significant injuries, he obviously likely wins several more goal-scoring titles, 1st and 2nd team all-star selections, maybe additional trophies.
And he would easily score 700 goals, possibly 800.
There were many great goal-scorers among his generation, but he was the best of the bunch.

Low sample size but has a Rangers he still scored at an 50 goals pace.I am not sure if it was just age since he was 30 or nagging injuries piling up but he is off his pace in 2002 and 2003 and of course retires because of his knees then.
