Playing career
Upon completion of his freshman season with St. Lawrence University in the ECAC, Carey signed as an undrafted free agent to a two-year entry level contract with the Chicago Blackhawks on March 20, 2014.[1]
On March 28, 2014, Carey made his NHL debut with the Blackhawks in the 2013–14 season, in a 5-3 loss to the Ottawa Senators. In his debut game, Carey registered 2 penalty minutes, and ended the night with a minus-1 rating.[2][3] Carey scored his first NHL goal on April 12, 2014 against Pekka Rinne of the Nashville Predators.
At the completion of his entry-level contract with the Blackhawks, Carey was not retained with a qualifying offer with the Blackhawks. On July 13, 2015, Carey signed as a free agent to a one-year AHL contract with the Iowa Wild, an affiliate of the Minnesota Wild.[4]
As a free agent from the Wild in the following off-season, Carey secured another AHL, agreeing to a one-year deal with the Hartford Wolf Pack on September 7, 2016.[5]
