Playing career
Klok began his professional career with HC Vítkovice Ridera in the Czech Extraliga.[1] After completing his fourth season with the team in 2017–18, he chose to continue his career by signing a one-year contract with Slovak club HC Slovan Bratislava of the KHL on June 22, 2018.[2]
On 14 July 2022, Klok was signed as an undrafted free agent to a one-year entry-level contract by the Arizona Coyotes of the National Hockey League (NHL).[3] Klok participated in training camp and pre-season with the Coyotes before being reassigned to begin his first professional season in North America with American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate the Tucson Roadrunners. Klok made four appearances on the blueline with the Roadrunners to start the 2022–23 season before he was placed on unconditional waivers by the Coyotes in opting to mutually terminate his contract on 28 October 2022.[4]
Klok returned to Europe with Swedish club Rögle BK of the Swedish Hockey League (SHL) for the remainder of the season on 5 November 2022.[5] Klok appeared in 11 games from the blueline with Rögle BK before leaving the club prematurely to sign for the remainder of the season with Swiss National League (NL) club, HC Lugano, on 13 January 2023.[6]
Klok rejoined Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk of the KHL as a free agent, signing a two-year deal on July 22, 2023, marking his second tenure with the team.[7]
