Playing career[edit]

On December 18, 2013, the Hurricanes signed Carrick to a three-year, entry-level contract.[1]

Carrick had a breakout season with the Charlotte Checkers, the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Hurricanes, during the 2015–16 season. He recorded a career-high 42 points in 70 games and was named to the AHL All-Star Game.[2] Carrick also received his first NHL recall by the Hurricanes on March 15, 2016.[3] He made his NHL debut the following day against the Washington Capitals.[4] In the 2017–18 season, Carrick played appeared in one game for Carolina, spending the majority of the season with Charlotte. He led all Checkers' defencemen in scoring with 11 goals and 44 points in 73 games.

On August 6, 2019, Carrick was traded by the Hurricanes to the San Jose Sharks in exchange for Kyle Wood.[9] Immediately following the trade, Carrick signed a two-year contract extension with the Sharks.[6] Although initially assigned to their AHL affiliate, the San Jose Barracuda, to begin the season, Carrick was recalled before the first game of the season and made his debut for the Sharks in a 3–1 loss to the Anaheim Ducks on October 5, 2019.[10] After appearing in two more games, he was returned to the Barracuda. He appeared in 48 games in the AHL and became the first defenceman in Barracuda franchise history to score a hat trick, which he did on December 3, 2019 against the Bakersfield Condors.[8]

Entering the pandemic-delayed 2020–21 season, Carrick was initially assigned the Barracuda. On January 27, 2021, Carrick was traded by the Sharks in a three-way trade to the Anaheim Ducks in exchange for Jack Kopacka.[11] Carrick joined brother Sam, following his reassignment to AHL affiliate, the San Diego Gulls. He had one goal and 12 points with the Gulls.

As an unrestricted free agent from the Ducks, Carrick was signed to a one-year, two-way contract for the 2022–23 season with the Tampa Bay Lightning on July 25, 2022.[13] Carrick played the entirety of his contract with the Lightning on assignment to AHL affiliate, the Syracuse Crunch.
