Matt Greene was a member of the Edmonton Oilers before being traded to the Los Angeles Kings in the 2008 off-season.  In L.A., he finished his career, but it wasn't brief, as he played there for nine seasons.

Greene was a traditional stay-at-home Defenseman who didn't score much, but didn't have to.  He only accumulated 67 Points in a Kings uniform but had a Plus/Minus of +21 and was a crucial part of their 2012 and 2014 Stanley Cup wins.
