He stayed with the Titan until 2007 when he was traded to the Rouyn-Noranda Huskies in exchange for Marc-Antoine Desnoyers and two draft picks.[4] Carle signed a three-year entry-level contract with the Montreal Canadiens on May 8, 2007,[5] and participated in the Canadiens' training and development camps before being reassigned to their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Hamilton Bulldogs, for the 2007–08 season.[6]
Professional
[edit]On September 24, 2008, Carle was knocked unconscious after being hit by Tomáš Kopecký of the Detroit Red Wings in a preseason game.[7] After the hit, he suffered a concussion and was out of the lineup for a month.[8]
In the 2009–10 season on November 3, 2009, Carle was recalled from the Hamilton Bulldogs of the AHL by the Canadiens and made his NHL debut against the Atlanta Thrashers.[9] Carle went scoreless in three games with the Canadiens before returning to the Bulldogs to score 15 points in 31 games before missing 44 games throughout the season to injury. Carle was then re-signed by Montreal to a one-year contract on July 13, 2010.[10]
On July 15, 2011, he was traded from Montreal to Anaheim for defensemen Mark Mitera. After spending the duration of the 2011–12 season with the Ducks' AHL affiliate, the Syracuse Crunch, Carle signed a one-year contract with Latvian club, Dinamo Riga, of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) on May 2, 2012.[11] During the 2012-13 season, after 35 games with Riga, Carle was released and signed a contract for the remainder of season with Genève-Servette HC in the Swiss National League A on January 15, 2013.[12]
On July 27, 2013 Carle returned to the KHL and signed one-year contract with newcomers, KHL Medveščak Zagreb of Croatia.[13] After two seasons with Zagreb, Carle signed a two-year contract with German club, Adler Mannheim of the Deutsche Eishockey Liga (DEL) on July 7, 2015.[14]
Following the 2018–19 season, playing with EHC Black Wings Linz in the Austrian Hockey League (EBEL), Carle opted to end his 12 year professional career and return to North America.[15]
