Former Vancouver Canuck Vladimir Krutov, a two-time Olympic and five-time World Champion, died Wednesday in Moscow. He was 52. Krutov reportedly fell ill with internal bleeding in the stomach area, a condition known as gastrorrhagia, on Sunday. He joined the Canucks for the 1989-90 season but was reported out of shape and, after scoring 11 goals in 61 games, was cut the following season. Krutov finished his career back in Europe.
