Jason King (born September 14, 1981 in Corner Brook , Newfoundland and Labrador ) is a former Canadian ice hockey player and current coach who is currently a manager at St. John's IceCaps .

Career

Player career

In 1999, at the age of 18, Jason King was on the ice for the Halifax Mooseheads for the first time in the QMJHL . After two years, he was selected in the 2001 NHL Entry Draft in the seventh round in 212th position by the Vancouver Canucks . The Canadian stayed in Halifax for another year before joining the Canucks organization.

In the 2002/03 season King was used eight times for Vancouver in the NHL, most of the season he was on the ice for the farm team Manitoba Moose in the American Hockey League . The following year, the winger completed 49 NHL games for Vancouver before he was used almost exclusively for Manitoba in the second half of the season. In the season 2004/05 the left shooter played continuously in the farm team from Manitoba, since the NHL season was canceled due to the lockout . A head injury forced him to sit out nine months before returning to the Moose AHL team.

In 2006 Jason King decided to move to Europe, where he signed on with Skellefteå AIK after Vancouver refused to accept its terms and conditions. The otherwise regular scorer was less successful there, which is why he changed the league again after one season. The left-handed shooter signed an annual contract with DEL Club Iserlohn Roosters , while his transfer rights were transferred from Vancouver to Anaheim.

The reigning Stanley Cup winner Anaheim took these rights in mid-July 2007 and took King under contract, whereupon the contract with the Roosters was terminated. After another season in which he failed to make the leap into the best ice hockey league in the world, he signed another contract in Germany, this time with Adler Mannheim . For the 2009/10 season , King moved to league rivals Hamburg Freezers . On August 2, 2011, he dissolved his contract in Hamburg and moved back to the American Hockey League, where he played for St. John's IceCaps , the farm team of the NHL team Winnipeg Jets .

Trainer and functionary career

In August 2013, the club announced that King had ended his active professional career and would henceforth work as an assistant coach for the team. He held this post until the 2014/15 season before he was introduced to the new St. John's IceCaps as Director of Hockey Operations .
