In 2011 Karlsson joined the Northeastern Huskies.[2] In his Freshman year, Karlsson was the Huskies' leading scorer with 10 goals and 16 assists.[2] Limited to 17 games due to season-ending injury in his Sophomore year, he scored five goals and three assists in his last season at Northeastern University.[2] In July 2013 the Ottawa Senators of the NHL announced they had signed Karlsson to a two year entry-level contract.[2] During the 2013-14 season, Karlsson played 8 games with the Binghamton Senators, Ottawa's American Hockey League affiliate, recording no Points, and 39 games with the Elmira Jackals of the ECHL, recording 11 Goals and 13 Assists.[4] On July 1, 2014, Karlsson was traded, along with Jason Spezza, from the Senators to the Dallas Stars in exchange for Alex Chiasson, Nick Paul, Alex Guptill, and a second round draft pick in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.[4]

After opening 2014-15 Training Camp with the Dallas Stars, the team assigned Karlsson to the Texas Stars, its American Hockey League affiliate.[5] Karlsson started off the 2014-15 season splitting time in Dallas' minor league system, playing for both the Texas Stars and the Idaho Steelheads of the ECHL.[6] On March 12, 2015, the Dallas Stars reassigned both Karlsson and Troy Vance from the Steelheads to the Missouri Mavericks of the ECHL as part of a deal in which the Mavericks traded Martin Lee and future considerations to the Steelheads.[7][8]
