When you think of the goaltending of the Edmonton Oilers throughout the 1980s, Grant Fuhr is the first name you think of. That is the correct answer, but Andy Moog had a lot of great moments in the pipes for Edmonton during that same era.
From Czechoslovakia, Ales Hemsky probably never got the overall respect that he should have, as his best seasons in the NHL were with the Edmonton Oilers at a time when they were not that good.

Bill Ranford began his career with the Boston Bruins and was traded to Edmonton in exchange for Geoff Courtnall and Andy Moog in 1988. Ranford took over Moog's role as the Oilers backup Goalie, and while he did not play in the 1988 Playoffs, he did win his first Stanley Cup Ring when the Oilers won their fourth Cup.
