Looking back at Andy Moog’s journey to the NHL, his playing career and life after hockey.

The Andy Moog story continued following his time in the WHL; he was selected in the seventh round, 132 overall, by the Edmonton Oilers. After playing in just 15 games through his first two seasons with the Oilers, Moog spent most of his first two professional seasons with the Wichita Wind in the Central Hockey League.

Moog broke through and became a full-time NHL goalie during the 1982-83 season. He played 50 games for the Oilers, who played in their first-ever Stanley Cup Final, losing to the New York Islanders that season. Moog earned the starting role over Grant Fuhr, posting a 33-8-7 record.
