Last updated
Donald Andrew Moog was born on February 18, 1960, in Penticton, British Columbia, Canada.[1] He played 713 career NHL games and posted a 372-209-88 record with a 3.13 goals-against-average.[2]
Life and work
Unhappy as a backup to Fuhr, Moog played out his option in 1986-87 and decided he wanted out of Edmonton.[3] Moog joined Team Canada for the 1987-88 pre-Olympic tour and the 1988 Olympics in Calgary.[3] On March 8, 1988, the Oilers traded Moog to the Boston Bruins for Geoff Courtnall, Bill Ranford, and a 1988 second-round pick.[1] Moog shared the Jennings Trophy for the fewest goals allowed in the NHL with Reggie Lemelin in Boston in 1990.[2]
Moog played one season for the Montreal Canadiens before announcing his retirement on June 22, 1998.[4] In the 1980 NHL entry draft, Edmonton chose Moog with their sixth selection, the 132nd pick overall.[4] Moog reached 300 career wins on March 18, 1994, becoming the 10th NHL goaltender to do so.[3] Moog became the Portland Winterhawks' goaltending coach in 2016, a role he held for seven years before retiring on July 19, 2023, citing health reasons.[5]
What the cited sources add
The hockeydraftcentral.com account states that Moog was a key spokesman for the NHLPA during collective bargaining talks in 1992 and 1994.[3] The same release states that Moog appeared in the Stanley Cup Finals six times and was a member of three Presidents' Trophy clubs (1986, 1987, 1990).[2] The hockeydraftcentral.com source adds that Moog purchased the Fort Worth expansion franchise in 1998 and became its president and managing general partner.[3]
