Kristián Kudroč began his career as a hockey player in his hometown in the youth department of the HC VTJ MEZ Michalovce , for whose professional team he was active from 1997 to 1999 in the first division , the second Slovak division. He was then selected in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft in the first round as a total of 28th player by the New York Islanders , for which he never played.

At the end of January 2010 he was finally committed by Ässät Pori from the SM-liiga, for which he played until 2012.
