Turning pro with the Nordiques at the end of the 1991-92 season, he spent most of the next three years in the minors. A trade to the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim in 1995 gave him the opportunity to be an NHL regular. He was that over seven seasons with the Ducks, the Carolina Hurricanes, and the New York Rangers.
In 2002-03 he was sent down to the Hartford Wolf Pack. Karpa spent the last three years of his career in the minors, including 12 games with the Amur Khabarovsk team in Russia in 2003-04.
