NHL player and mascot Bui miraculously escaped from a bear in Alaska (5 photos + 1 video)
Seattle Kraken forward John Haden and team mascot Bui the sea troll will remember a fishing trip in Anchorage. The group was filming a video on the river near Brooks Falls when a grizzly bear walked into the frame. 
The team went fishing as part of an annual partnership with the Bristol Bay Native Corporation to engage fans in Alaska with hockey and community activities.
“Every year we try to do something special in Alaska,” said Melissa O’Brochta, chief marketing officer for the Kraken Partnership. “A couple of years ago, Bui and I flew over glaciers in a helicopter, then we went fishing in Anchorage. And this year, we decided to go fly fishing at Brooks Falls. It’s legendary. Have you seen the picture of the bear catching salmon? It was probably at Brooks Falls.” 
The crew was filming a story about Buoy and attacker John Hayden in the Alaskan wilderness when a bear gave them a slightly different story.
The guides reported the approaching danger. The bear did not hesitate and rushed after the uninvited guests. Probably, the clubfoot was attracted by the unusual appearance of the sea troll.
"Bui is to blame. He was clearly interested in his appearance. We narrowly escaped," Hayden said.
"No one was harmed in the making of this video, not trolls or bears. Respect animals in their natural habitat," the mascot's social media page says.
