Roenick stirred up controversy during the Labor Dispute, when he addressed fans that see players as being spoiled. Roenick told these fans to "kiss my ass," and accused them of being jealous, going even further to tell them not to come to the games and not to watch it. The league had already lost many fans in the 301-day-long lockout, and Roenick's comments may have driven out many more fans. Roenick was traded to the Los Angeles Kings by the Philadelphia Flyers before the start of the 2005 season to clear salary cap space for Peter Forsberg.
