Lost in all the hoop-la over the firing of Terry Murray and the current state of Sutter Watch 2011 was the fact that the Los Angeles Kings waived Ethan Moreau last week, thanking him for his 1 goal, 3 assists and veteran leadership... and then promptly kicking him out the door. Even though he wasn't brought in for scoring... Moreau's 1 goal put him directly behind Drew Doughty and Dustin Penner's 2 goals in overall stats. While Dean Lombardi has talked at length about the struggle he had with firing Terry Murray, I'm sure he showed a veteran leader like Ethan Moreau the same amount of respect.
I could really care less about the loss of Ethan Moreau from the Los Angeles Kings roster... especially when most fans are still wondering why ...
