Gould started his professional career in 1972 with the Des Moines Capitols of the International Hockey League (IHL).
His debut was against the California Golden Seals on January 11, and he played the next night against the New York Rangers before returning to the Totems for the rest of the season.
The WHL folded in 1974, and Seattle joined the Central Hockey League, and Gould played one season there, followed by one with the Buffalo Norsemen of the North American Hockey League before returning to the IHL in 1976, joining the Port Huron Flags.
He spent five seasons with Port Huron, and a final year in the IHL split between the Muskegon Mohawks and Flint Generals before retiring in 1982.
Gould’s number 10 was retired by the Port Huron Flags in a ceremony surrounded by family and friends.
