Profile Contributed By: HF Staff
History
2008-09: Plagued quite a bit by injuries, the Minnesotan had his season abbreviated. Despite playing in just 47 games, he established career marks in goals (14), assists (22) and points (36).
Signed after participating in the 2009 Traverse City Tournament.
2009-10: In his final year with the Medicine Hat Tigers(WHL), KIng finished with 21 goals and 44 assists in 70 games. In the playoffs King scored 3 goals and 3 assists in 12 games.
2010-11: King battled injuries in his first professional season. He managed to appear in 24 ECHL games with Idaho, registering three goals and ten assists. With Texas of the American Hockey League, he went 2+2=4 in 11 games. He also scored 3 points in six Idaho playoff tilts.
Talent Analysis
The handsy, 19-year-old forward will look to give his numbers a serious boost this season while being a major piece of Medicine Hat’s high-octane offense. King will need to shake off the cobwebs left by a concussion and groin injury from yesteryear and become more involved in the dirty areas to get goals.
Future
Will remain in the minors for the foreseeable future.
