Carson Meyer (born August 18, 1997) is an American professional ice hockey right winger for the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League (AHL) while under contract to the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League (NHL). The Columbus Blue Jackets selected him in the sixth round, 179th overall, of the 2017 NHL entry draft. He previously played college ice hockey for the Miami RedHawks and Ohio State Buckeyes. ====Columbus Blue Jackets (2021–2024)==== On October 22, 2020, Meyer, whose draft rights with the Blue Jackets expired shortly after his college graduation, signed a one-year contract with the Cleveland Monsters, the Blue Jackets' American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate. The continued effects of the COVID-19 pandemic meant that Meyer did not begin his professional hockey career until February 2021, the start of the Monsters' 2020–21 season. He made his AHL debut on February 22, scoring two goals in Cleveland's 7–3 win over the Rockford IceHogs. Midway through the season, the Blue Jackets signed Meyer to a one-year, entry-level contract for the season. He finished his first professional season with nine goals and 20 points in 26 games, including a nine-game midseason point streak. His scoring tapered off at the end, however, with only four points in his last nine games. Meyer and the Monsters did not participate in the Calder Cup playoffs due to continued COVID-19 heath and safety protocols. After participating in the Blue Jackets' preseason, Meyer was assigned to the Monsters to begin the 2021–22 season. Meyer was recalled to Columbus on an emergency basis on February 9 as a replacement for Patrik Laine, who was suffering from a hand and wrist injury. Laine ended up playing in that night's game, and Meyer returned to Cleveland without having made his NHL debut. After scoring 16 goals and 27 points in 57 AHL games, Meyer was promoted again on April 3, and he made his NHL debut the following night, playing in the Blue Jackets' 4–3 overtime loss to the Boston Bruins. On April 5, Meyer picked up his first NHL goal and assist in a 4–2 win over the Philadelphia Flyers, bringing Columbus's seven-game losing streak to an end. ====Anaheim Ducks (2024–2025)==== On July 3, 2024, Meyer left the Blue Jackets as a free agent, having signed a one-year, $775k contract with the Anaheim Ducks. Meyer was placed on waivers during Anaheim's 2024 training camp and after going unclaimed, assigned to the Ducks AHL affiliate, the San Diego Gulls to begin the 2024–25 season.
