Hey everyone, last week I had #10 of my personal favorite Oilers in Bill Guerin. Today, I move onto my #9 Edmonton Oiler being Curtis Joseph.
Joseph Recap
Curtis Joseph was the first true star goalie that I remember on the Edmonton Oilers. Originally an undrafted goaltender, Joseph took the NCAA route playing with the Wisconsin Badgers. Joseph would break into the NHL with the St. Louis Blues, playing there until 1995. It was there where he was a holdout and was dealt to Edmonton, along with good ol’ Mike Grier for a first round pick in 1996 (which turned out to be future Oiler, Marty Reasoner) and a first round pick in 1997.
