After 15 seasons in the NHL, McCarthy changed his focus from professional hockey to becoming an assistant head coach with the Woodstock Slammers, a Junior A team in New Brunswick.

In May of 1989, McCarthy was selected by the Niagara Falls Thunder in the 11th round (163rd overall) of the OHL Priority Selection.
As a power forward, McCarthy played for the QMJHL Laval Titan in the 1989–90 season before being drafted by the Calgary Flames.
He played one last season with the Titan.
After not being signed by the Thunder, McCarthy's rights were waived to the QMJHL Laval Titan where he starred for 3 years - including a trip to the Memorial Cup in Hamilton in 1990.
McCarthy was selected by the Calgary Flames in the third round (52nd overall) of the 1991 NHL Entry Draft.

While playing in the NHL, McCarthy became well-known for incidents surrounding racial slurs.
In the year 1998, McCarthy was accused of racial insensitivity in the form of gestures against African-American player Peter Worrell.
Along with teammate Darcy Tucker, allegations were denied and the victim, Worrell, also confirmed he had not seen or heard any racial insults made towards him from either of the Tampa Bay players.
McCarthy stated that growing up half aboriginal and half black, he would "never go there" because he had to go through racial taunts growing up.
This incident occurred during a game against the Florida Panthers while McCarthy was with Tampa Bay Lightning in 1998.
McCarthy remained in Calgary for the next five years before being traded, in 1998, to the Tampa Bay Lightning, for a short stay.
His next stop was with the Philadelphia Flyers for the next two seasons then a brief stint for the Carolina Hurricanes.
The following season in 1999, McCarthy was playing for the Philadelphia Flyers when he stated that Toronto Maple Leafs player Tie Domi made racial slurs towards him.
Domi insisted this was a false accusation against him and went on to say he had no respect for McCarthy and would never partake in a fight with him.
An NHL investigation was also conducted that reinforced Domi's denial.
As his time in the NHL progressed, he switched from his role as a power forward in junior hockey to more of a pressure player, offensively as well as defensively.

Later in the shift, McCarthy scored and as McCarthy celebrated, Cairns gave him a jab to the jaw, which led to a fight between Cairns and Steve McKenna.
While Cairns was in the penalty box, he was called chicken by Theoren Fleury who flapped his arms like a chicken to suggest that Cairns was afraid to fight McCarthy, who flexed his biceps and looked at Cairns.
The next time the two teams played against each other on December 21, 2001 Cairns fought McCarthy and beat him.
