    Fred is Fuhr's fan

     CALGARY (CP) -- In 1993, Oilers goaltender Fred Brathwaite nervously asked if he could wear Grant Fuhr's old number.
     The Oilers asked Fuhr, who had moved on to Buffalo if it was OK and Fuhr said sure.
     Six years later, Fuhr is the Flames starter and Brathwaite is his backup.
     "I was first to wear 31 in Edmonton after him. Growing up, he was one of my idols," Brathwaite told the Calgary Herald.
