Biography
As a youth, Moro played in the 1991 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Markham, Ontario.[1]
Moro played junior hockey with the Kingston Frontenacs from 1993 to 1997, and the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds for part of the 1996–97 season. Moro played his first pro hockey game for the Prince Edward Island Senators of the AHL during the 1995–96 season before being sent back to junior.
Marc Moro never played a game in an Ottawa Senators jersey. In 1996, his rights were traded to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim with Ted Drury for Jason York and Shaun Van Allen. He made his National Hockey League (NHL) debut with the Mighty Ducks, playing in one game during the 1997–98 season. He was dealt the next season with goaltender Chris Mason to the Nashville Predators for goaltender Dominic Roussel.
Marc Moro was selected as the first captain in Toronto Marlies history in October 2005. Moro was also the St. John's Maple Leafs' last captain in their 15-year history during the 2004–05 AHL season.
On August 13, 2007, Moro announced his retirement.[2]
Moro now works as an analyst during Maple Leaf games on Leafs TV.
