The Liptovsky Mikulas, Slovakia native was signed by St. Louis as an undrafted free agent on April 6, 2003.

Kinda figured this was going to happen after him getting scratched against Boogaard and the Wild last night.

****ing ****.

Bullsh1t . I just praised the recent call ups of King and others. We just pissing in the wind.

[Toe2tOe55]

I do not understand how he didnt play yesterday against the wild and he did against the Predators, that call up was for no reason.

[TheBoogeyman]

Nothing surprises me anymore. I dont even get excited anymore when tough guys are called up, because you know they are going right back down.

[FlagsFan]

Why the **** was he even called up?
they didn't even play him last night anyway

This is crap. What the heck happened here? In the paper this morning ti said that Sejna was sent down. Then a few hours later they call him back up and send King down? Give me a break. They want to keep Sejna around because he's a "skill player". Skill? Good grief. Sejna hasn't done CRAP for us yet. Send him down and keep King up here.

Although you knew this was coming. He only gets to play in one game each time he gets called up, and then he gets sent back down. So who's going to protect our players now? Mayers and Jackman are middleweights, we need a heavyweight. And the worst part is: Walker probably won't be playing either, because McKee might be returning soon, and they just called up Woywitka from the minors to take Walker's place.

We go from being one of the toughest teams in the league with both Walker and King up here, and now we are pretty weak since neither of them are going to play for a while. We need to carry a heavyweight! I hate this. Give King a chance -- and that doesn't mean just play him for one game, that means play him in every game that he's up here! Pathetic. This makes me pretty mad. Petr Sejna sucks, he's too little and he can't do anything. I want King up here.

Andy Murray is the why.

[Arankys]

hahaahahahahahaah anyone who watches and still cares about the NHL needs mental help.
I say who cares, Bettman thanks you for the support

All's I can say is get used to Murray's yo-yoing. King will be back up after someone like Tootoo takes out somebody and injures them.
