West Coast Authentic - Andy Moog with Grant Fuhr

GRANT FUHR:

He played for the Oilers for ten seasons, where he teamed up with Andy Moog for several of them to form one of the most formidable goaltending tandems in history, and won five Stanley Cups. He was the team's starting goaltender on the first four teams, but was injured and did not play in the 1990 playoffs, when the Oilers won for the fifth time. Fuhr played in the National Hockey League All-Star Game in 1984, 1985, 1986, 1988, and 1989. In 1987, he played in goal for the NHL All-Stars in both games of the Rendez-Vous '87 series against the Soviet National Team. In 1987-88, Fuhr backstopped Canada to a victory at the Canada Cup, playing in all nine games, then played in 75 regular season and 19 playoff games. He won his only Vezina Trophy as the NHL's top goaltender that year and finished second in voting for the Hart Memorial Trophy as league MVP, behind Mario Lemieux and ahead of teammate Wayne Gretzky. He battled shoulder injuries and substance abuse problems at the tail end of his career with Edmonton, and was suspended by the NHL for the first half of the 1990–91 season

ANDY MOOG:

In 1982–83, Oilers general manager and coach Glen Sather decided to go with the young duo of Moog and Fuhr and traded away Low. Moog was given the nod in the playoffs, where he backstopped the Oilers to their first Stanley Cup Finals, though they were swept by the New York Islanders, who captured their fourth straight. The next year, however, Sather went with Fuhr in the 1984 playoffs, until he was injured in the third game of the Finals in a rematch against the Islanders. Moog stepped in and helped the Oilers to win the series, being in net for the Cup-clinching game. However, Fuhr continued to be the number one goalie for the subsequent seasons and, after demanding a trade, Moog walked out on the Oilers in 1987 to play for Team Canada at the Calgary Winter Olympics.
