[edit] Playing career

Klee was drafted 177th overall by the Washington Capitals in the 1990 NHL Entry Draft. Klee would not play for the Capitals until the 1994-95 season, but it did not take him long to become a regular on the squad. Klee played with the Capitals until the end of the 2002-03 season. He then became a free agent and signed with the Toronto Maple Leafs on 27 September 2003. Klee had played in Washington for 9 seasons, and played in 604 games (regular season and playoffs). In Klee's first season in Toronto he registered career highs in assists (25) and points (29) despite missing 16 games. On March 8, 2006, a day before the NHL's trading deadline, Klee was traded by the Maple Leafs to the New Jersey Devils in exchange for winger Alexander Suglobov. In July of 2006, Klee signed with the Colorado Avalanche as an unrestricted free agent.
