Matthew George Greene (born May 13, 1983) is an American former professional ice hockey defenseman. Originally drafted in the second round, 44th overall, at the 2002 NHL entry draft by the Edmonton Oilers, he most notably served as an alternate captain for the Los Angeles Kings, with whom he won the Stanley Cup twice. Greene has worked in the Kings' organization as a professional scout after retiring from playing.
Key Information
Playing career
[edit]As a youth, Greene played in the 1997 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Kalamazoo, Michigan.[1]
Edmonton Oilers
[edit]Greene was drafted in the second round, 44th overall, by the Edmonton Oilers in the 2002 NHL entry draft. Prior to his professional career, he played for three seasons with the North Dakota Fighting Sioux men's ice hockey team. In 2004–05, Greene captained The Fighting Sioux to the NCAA Men's Ice Hockey Championship game, losing to the University of Denver Pioneers, 4–1.[citation needed]
Due to his talent, Greene was encouraged to leave college hockey after only three seasons to start a professional career. After a successful training camp with the Oilers prior to the 2005–06 season, Greene signed a professional contract with Edmonton and was assigned to their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate in Des Moines, the Iowa Stars. He made his NHL debut with the Oilers on December 30, 2005, against the Nashville Predators, and scored his first NHL point on January 25, 2006, away against he Mighty Ducks of Anaheim, assisting on an Aleš Hemský goal.[citation needed]
Wearing sweater number 32 for the first 13 games of his NHL career, Greene changed to sweater number 2 on February 2, 2006, when the Oilers faced off against the Columbus Blue Jackets.[citation needed]
Greene was part of the Edmonton team that made a run to the Stanley Cup Final, though the Cinderalla run eventually fell short after the Oilers lost in game seven to the Carolina Hurricanes. Greene contributed an assist in his team's playoff run.[citation needed]
Greene scored his first NHL goal on December 15, 2006, against Minnesota Wild netminder Manny Fernandez. The goal was scored in the third period of the game, evening the score at 1–1. The Oilers would eventually score two more goals, winning 3–1. Local Edmonton broadcaster Gene Principe awarded Greene the game puck during an interview session following the game. Greene also received the second star of the game due to his effort.[citation needed]
Los Angeles Kings
[edit]
Greene and his Oiler teammate Jarret Stoll were traded to the Los Angeles Kings on June 29, 2008, in exchange for Kings defenseman Ľubomír Višňovský.[2] On October 8, 2008, he was named as an alternate captain of the Kings.[3] Nine days later, on October 17, he signed a five-year contract extension with the Kings.[4] In the 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs, Greene and the Kings won the Stanley Cup by beating the New Jersey Devils in six games. He scored the final goal of the 2012 Stanley Cup Final in the Kings' 6–1 game six triumph.[5]
Injuries limited Greene to only five games during the 2012–13 season, a campaign that saw the Kings fail to defend their Stanley Cup title, losing to the eventual champion Chicago Blackhawks in five games in the Western Conference Finals.[citation needed]
On June 13, 2014, Greene and his Kings teammates defeated the New York Rangers in game five of the 2014 Stanley Cup Final 3–2 in double overtime, securing his and the team's second Stanley Cup in three years. He was then resigned to a 4-year, $10 million contract.[citation needed]
On June 30, 2016, Greene was placed on unconditional waivers by the Kings for the purpose of buying out the final two years of his contract, following a season where the defenseman played only three games due to a shoulder injury, picking up no points and eight penalty minutes. He was however not bought out from his contract and remained with the team for the duration of the 2016–17 season.[6]
Again limited to injury and back surgery, Greene featured in just 26 games for a goal and assist. As a consequence, he was stripped of his alternate captaincy due to the length of time he missed last season. In the following off-season he was activated from the injured reserve to be bought out from the remaining year of his contract on June 13, 2017.[7]
On August 14, 2017, Greene joined the Kings as a pro scout, ending his playing career.[8]

Early career
Junior and amateur play
Matthew George Greene was born on May 13, 1983, in Grand Ledge, Michigan, as the youngest of three siblings in a family that emphasized early involvement in sports.[3][8] Growing up, Greene often tagged along to his older brother and sister's athletic activities, fostering his initial interest in hockey and physical competition within a supportive household.[8] Greene's junior career began with the U.S. National Under-18 Team in the United States Hockey League (USHL) during the 2000–01 season, where he appeared in 20 games, recording 1 assist and accumulating 51 penalty minutes as a rugged defenseman.[9] He then joined the Green Bay Gamblers for the 2001–02 USHL season, playing 55 regular-season games and tallying 4 goals and 20 assists for 24 points, while leading the team with 150 penalty minutes; in the playoffs, he added 1 assist in 7 games.[9] His physical presence and defensive reliability earned him a spot on the USHL Second All-Star Team that year.[1] He also participated in the 2002 USHL Prospects/All-Star Game.[4] In the 2000 NAHL Entry Draft, Greene was selected in the second round (15th overall) by the Soo Indians, but he opted to pursue opportunities in the USHL and commit to college hockey instead.[2] This path culminated in his selection by the Edmonton Oilers in the second round (44th overall) of the 2002 NHL Entry Draft, where scouts praised his impressive size (6-foot-3, 210 pounds at the time), strength, and willingness to engage physically as a stay-at-home defenseman who stabilized the blue line.[9][10] Internationally, Greene represented Team USA at the 2001 IIHF World U18 Championships in Heinola and Hämeenlinna, Finland, contributing on the defensive end during the tournament where the Americans finished sixth overall after a preliminary round that included wins over Ukraine, Switzerland, and Slovakia alongside a loss to Finland.[11] These experiences honed his foundational skills, paving the way for his transition to collegiate hockey at the University of North Dakota.[9]College ice hockey
Greene joined the University of North Dakota Fighting Sioux for the 2002–03 season after being selected by the Edmonton Oilers in the 2002 NHL Entry Draft, committing to the program in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA).[4] His prior season with the Green Bay Gamblers in the United States Hockey League provided a strong foundation for his collegiate development as a defenseman.[4] Over three seasons at UND, Greene appeared in 122 games, registering 3 goals and 28 assists for 31 points while accumulating 347 penalty minutes, ranking fourth all-time in program history for PIM.[2][12] In his freshman year (2002–03), he posted 4 points (0 goals, 4 assists) in 39 games with 135 PIM.[2] As a sophomore (2003–04), Greene improved offensively with 17 points (1 goal, 16 assists) in 40 games and 86 PIM, earning All-WCHA Academic Team honors.[2][4] During his junior campaign (2004–05), he served as team captain, contributing 10 points (2 goals, 8 assists) in 43 games and 126 PIM while leading the squad in physical play.[2][13] At 6 feet 3 inches and 225 pounds, Greene embodied a rugged defensive style, emphasizing physicality and reliability on the blue line.[9] His leadership helped guide the Fighting Sioux to the 2005 NCAA Frozen Four, where they finished as national runners-up after a 4–1 defeat to Denver in the championship game.[14] Greene also received All-WCHA Academic Team recognition for the 2004–05 season, highlighting his balance of athletics and academics while majoring in communications.[15] Following his junior year, Greene left UND to sign a two-year entry-level contract with the Edmonton Oilers on April 20, 2005, turning professional at age 21.[16]Professional playing career
Edmonton Oilers
After forgoing his senior season at the University of North Dakota, Greene signed a two-year entry-level contract with the Edmonton Oilers on August 16, 2005.[16] He was then assigned to the Oilers' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Iowa Stars, for the 2005–06 season, where he made his professional debut and recorded 2 goals and 5 assists in 26 games, along with 47 penalty minutes.[2] The Stars advanced to the Calder Cup Finals that year but fell to the Hamilton Bulldogs in five games. Greene earned his first NHL call-up later that season, making his debut on December 30, 2005, against the Nashville Predators.[1] He appeared in 27 games for Edmonton during 2005–06, posting 2 assists and 43 penalty minutes while adjusting to the professional level. In his first full NHL season the following year (2006–07), Greene solidified his role as a stay-at-home defenseman, playing all 78 games with 1 goal, 9 assists, and a team-high 109 penalty minutes.[1] Greene played a key supporting role in the Oilers' memorable run to the 2006 Stanley Cup Final, appearing in 18 playoff games and providing physical defensive support en route to a seven-game defeat against the Carolina Hurricanes.[1] Over parts of three seasons with Edmonton, he appeared in 151 regular-season games, tallying 1 goal and 12 assists for 13 points, along with 205 penalty minutes.[2] His tenure ended on June 29, 2008, when the Oilers traded him, along with forward Jarret Stoll, to the Los Angeles Kings in exchange for defenseman Ľubomír Višňovský.[1]Los Angeles Kings
Greene was acquired by the Los Angeles Kings from the Edmonton Oilers on June 29, 2008, in exchange for defenseman Ľubomír Višňovský. As a bottom-pairing defenseman, he quickly established himself as a physical presence on the blue line, leading the Kings in hits during the 2009–10 season with 238 and ranking third among all NHL defensemen league-wide.[1] Named an alternate captain prior to his first game with the team in 2008–09, Greene provided steady defensive play and leadership, playing all 82 games that season while finishing second on the Kings in hits (206) and first in blocked shots (167).[1] His rugged style, including frequent body checks and shot-blocking, complemented the Kings' emerging defensive system, drawing on his prior experience as a shutdown defender in Edmonton.[17] On October 17, 2008, Greene signed a five-year contract extension with the Kings worth $14.75 million, securing his role as a core defenseman through the 2013–14 season. He continued to anchor the third pairing effectively, earning the team's Ace Bailey Memorial Award as the most inspirational player in five of six seasons from 2009–10 to 2014–15.[1] In June 2014, following the Kings' second Stanley Cup victory, Greene agreed to another four-year extension valued at $10 million, reflecting his value as a veteran leader despite ongoing injury concerns. Greene played a pivotal shutdown role during the Kings' 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs, appearing in all 20 games while logging heavy minutes against top opposing forwards, including 77 hits and 24 blocked shots en route to the championship.[1] He contributed offensively with two goals and four assists, including his first playoff goals and a shorthanded marker against the St. Louis Blues.[3] As an alternate captain, Greene helped set the tone for the team's gritty, physical identity that propelled the eighth-seeded Kings to the title.[1] In the 2014 playoffs, he again served as alternate captain and played 20 of 26 games, providing crucial defensive stability in the Stanley Cup Final against the New York Rangers with four assists and heavy ice time in key matchups.[3] His presence bolstered the penalty kill and back-end toughness during the grueling seven-game series win.[1] Injuries increasingly hampered Greene's tenure, beginning with back surgery in January 2013 after a herniated disc limited him to five regular-season games that year. He returned for the 2013 playoffs but missed the entire 2013–14 regular season's final 44 games due to related back issues and other ailments, playing just 38 contests overall.[3] In December 2015, shoulder surgery sidelined him for the remainder of the 2015–16 season after only three games, and upper-body injuries restricted him to 26 appearances in 2016–17.[18] These setbacks culminated in the Kings buying out the final year of his contract on June 23, 2017, converting his $2.5 million cap hit into $833,333 annually over two seasons.[19] Over nine seasons with the Kings, Greene appeared in 464 regular-season games, recording 16 goals and 51 assists for 67 points along with 458 penalty minutes.[3] On August 14, 2017, at age 34, he announced his retirement from professional hockey, citing cumulative injuries from his physical playing style as the primary factor.International career
World Junior Championships
Matt Greene represented the United States at the 2001 IIHF World U18 Championship, held in Heinola and Lahti, Finland, where Team USA earned the silver medal after a 2–1 loss to Russia in the final.[11] Greene also represented the United States at the 2003 IIHF World U20 Championship, held in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, where Team USA captured the gold medal by defeating Canada 3–2 in the final.[20] As a defenseman in the 2003 tournament, Greene appeared in all seven games, contributing offensively with one assist while accumulating 34 penalty minutes, reflecting his physical style of play.[21] His selection to the roster stemmed from his standout performances in the United States Hockey League (USHL) with the Green Bay Gamblers and his early college career at the University of North Dakota, where scouts highlighted his robust defensive capabilities in high-pressure junior environments.[9] Over his junior international career at major IIHF tournaments, Greene's U20 totals were 7 games played, 0 goals, 1 assist, 1 point, and 34 penalty minutes, all from the 2003 tournament. His U18 participation added to his early international experience, though specific individual statistics from 2001 are not detailed in available records.[9]IIHF World Championship
Matt Greene represented Team USA at the IIHF World Championship on three occasions during his NHL career, serving as a reliable shutdown defenseman known for his physical presence and effectiveness on the penalty kill. Selected for his first senior international tournament in 2007 while with the Edmonton Oilers, Greene played all seven games in Moscow, Russia, where the United States finished fourth overall after a semifinal loss to Finland. In that event, he contributed two assists while logging 6 penalty minutes and posting a +4 plus-minus rating, helping to stabilize the blue line alongside fellow NHLers like Ryan Suter and Erik Johnson.[22] Greene returned for the 2008 tournament, co-hosted by Quebec City and Halifax, Canada, again appearing in all seven games as Team USA placed sixth following a quarterfinal defeat to Sweden. His role emphasized physical defending and penalty killing, though he recorded no points and accumulated 38 penalty minutes in a gritty performance that underscored his willingness to engage opponents; he finished with a +1 plus-minus rating. The roster featured a mix of established NHL talent, including Patrick Kane and Phil Kessel, highlighting Greene's value as a complementary shutdown player during the 2007–08 NHL season.[23] His final IIHF World Championship appearance came in 2010 in Germany, where he suited up for six of Team USA's seven games amid a challenging tournament that saw the team finish 13th after the relegation round. Greene tallied one assist, 4 penalty minutes, and a +4 plus-minus rating, earning recognition as one of the United States' top three players of the event by tournament officials for his steady defensive contributions on a roster that included Brandon Dubinsky and Ryan Malone. Selected during the 2009–10 season with the Los Angeles Kings, this outing reflected his reputation as a dependable physical defender. Greene did not participate in further senior international competitions due to recurring injuries and the Kings' postseason priorities in subsequent years.[24][25]| Year | Location | GP | G | A | P | PIM | +/- | Team Finish |

Post-playing career
Scouting with the Los Angeles Kings
Following his retirement announcement on August 14, 2017, due to a series of injuries that limited his playing time in recent seasons, Matt Greene transitioned immediately into a front-office role with the Los Angeles Kings as a pro scout.[7][26] In this position, Greene was tasked with evaluating professional talent, particularly serving as the club's scout for the Pacific Division of the American Hockey League (AHL), where he drew on his extensive NHL experience as a physical, stay-at-home defenseman to assess prospects' defensive capabilities and overall fit.[27][1] Greene contributed to the Kings' scouting efforts from 2017 to 2021.[28][29] He held the scouting role until mid-2021, when he transitioned to the player development staff, continuing to leverage his on-ice expertise for talent identification within the organization.[30][31]Player development coach
In the 2021–22 season, Matt Greene transitioned from his prior scouting position to join the Los Angeles Kings' player development staff as a development coach, a role he has held through the 2024–25 season.[28] In this capacity, Greene provides on-ice instruction to prospects, emphasizing defensive positioning, physical play, and leadership qualities essential for professional hockey.[32] He collaborates closely with fellow development coaches, including Sean O'Donnell, to implement a standardized defensive teaching framework that prioritizes foundational skills like proper positioning and rush defense before advancing to more complex plays.[32] Greene's key activities include leading instructional sessions at the Kings' annual development camps, where he works directly with young players to bridge the gap between junior and professional levels. For instance, during the 2023 camp, he focused on refining the skills of defensemen such as Brandt Clarke and Jakub Dvorak, highlighting Clarke's puck-handling IQ while addressing areas for defensive improvement.[32] Similar efforts continued in the 2024 camp, involving recent draftees from the 2024 NHL Entry Draft, and the 2025 camp held in late June, where he guided sessions alongside staff like Jarret Stoll and Mike Donnelly.[33][34] These camps stress relationship-building and skill enhancement over evaluation, allowing Greene to offer personalized feedback during practices and scrimmages.[31] As of November 2025, Greene remains actively involved in the Kings' player development, contributing to training camp preparations and maintaining regular contact—often multiple times per year—with prospects across affiliates, including the American Hockey League's Ontario Reign.[32] He coordinates with on-site coaches to ensure consistent development pathways, drawing on his extensive playing experience to mentor emerging talent.[28] Greene has been praised for his effective mentoring of young defensemen, leveraging lessons from his two Stanley Cup wins with the Kings in 2012 and 2014 to instill professionalism and resilience in prospects like Clarke, who have credited his guidance for their growth.[35] His approach fosters trust and long-term progress, helping players adapt to the demands of NHL competition.[32]Career statistics and awards
