A moose would rip a bear to shreds with its hooves before a bear would be able to sink its teeth into it. Those front hooves are nasty weapons, and a cow moose would cause a lot of damage to a bear when she's trying to protect her calves. A bull moose on the rut is even worse, because not only is his testosterone sky-high, but he's got extra weaponry via his antlers to aid him in his assault on a pesky black bear. My money's on the moose because most people fail to give them credit for being quite the adversaries, even for a bear.

How many grizzlies would it take to kill a moose?

One attacking grizzly bear is enough to kill a moose, but those large set of antlers are good at killing a bear. The moose would do whatever to fight off the grizzly bear with antlers, hooves, and muscles on the head to fight. But since grizzly bears are so large and have deadly claws, the moose would suffer fatal injuries on its head and the antlers as well. A powerful swipe of a grizzly bear's paw can break a moose's antler or even a bull. the grizzly bear's huge jaws with sharp enough teeth can kill a moose easily.
