At the age of seventeen, in 1979, Fuhr joined the Victoria Cougars of the WHL. After two stellar seasons in Victoria, Fuhr was drafted 8th overall by the Edmonton Oilers in the 1981 NHL entry draft.  He played for the Oilers for ten seasons, winning five Stanley Cups. In 1987, he won 40 games and made the All-Star game. In 1988, Fuhr won his only Vezina Trophy as the NHL's top goaltender.

From the late 80's to mid 90's Fuhr played with several teams, his best hockey coming in 1995-96 with the St. Louis Blues where he played an astounding 79 games in the season and set two notable records, namely the most games played by a goaltender in a season and the most consecutive starts by a goaltender.

During the 1999-2000 season, playing for the Calgary Flames, Fuhr became only the sixth goalie in NHL history to win 400 or more games. Shortly after, he retired. On July 22, 2004, he was hired by the Phoenix Coyotes as goaltender coach by Wayne Gretzky.
