Playing career

Caruso was selected in the 4th round, 103rd overall, by the Florida Panthers in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft, following a standout junior career with the Guelph Storm of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL).

Following a strong training camp, Caruso was assigned to the Panthers' American Hockey League affiliate, the Rochester Americans, to start the 2008–09 season.[1]

A free agent into the 2014–15 season, Caruso belatedly signed an ECHL contract with the Reading Royals on November 8, 2014.[2] In adding a stabilising influence to the Royals blueline, Caruso contributed with 20 points in 65 games.

On June 12, 2015, Caruso signed his first contract abroad, agreeing to a one-year deal with Austrian club, Dornbirner EC of the EBEL.[3] After three seasons with the Bulldogs, Caruso left as a free agent, continuing in the EBEL with Hungarian competitors, Fehérvár AV19, on September 15, 2018.[4]
