I think it's a good choice. Moreau has been there for years, is the prototypical "gritty" Oiler, and plays with his heart on the line.
I'm not sure who else you could give it to either... maybe Staios.
Living in Ottawa I don't get to read the ins and outs of the Oil locker room, but from what I can remember hearing, Moreau has the respect of the guys and their ears, so why not?
The other thing I'm excited about is to see if Sam Gagner sticks around, and if he keeps scoring. From the highlights I saw during the preseason, him and Hemsky have some chemsitry, so perhaps Hemsky will FINALLY have a break out year (and shoot more!)
