Greene attended and played hockey at Miami University for the RedHawks men\'s ice hockey team. He was signed as an undrafted NHL free agent by the New Jersey Devils in 2006 and was assigned to the team\'s American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, Lowell Devils, after New Jersey\'s training camp. He excelled at the AHL level, making the PlanetUSA All-Star Team.\n', '

During his rookie professional season in 2006–07, Greene was called-up to the NHL for a short stint to replace the injured Johnny Oduya. Though Greene played well and showed considerable promise,[according to whom?] he was reassigned to Lowell upon Oduya\'s return. Later in the season, he was again recalled when Colin White was injured. When the 2007 Stanley Cup playoffs began, the NHL salary cap no longer applied, allowing the Devils to add Greene to their permanent roster. With the return of injured defenseman Richard Matvichuk, it appeared as though Greene would sit. However, an injury to Colin White allowed Greene to remain on the roster. During this period, Greene played so well that, upon White\'s return, Oduya was scratched instead of Greene.\n', '

On July 1, 2011, Greene signed a new four-year, $14 million contract with the Devils.\n', '
