Street's chances of reaching the NHL with the Penguins were limited, as Pittsburgh already had several top centres, so he chose to leave the organization as a free agent. He chose to sign with the Calgary Flames, a team with less depth at the position.[9] The contract was his first NHL deal, a two-year, two-way contract that would pay him $575,000 if he played in the NHL, and $105,000 in the AHL.[10] Street began the season in the AHL with the Abbotsford Heat, but sought to impress the Flames' coaching staff during the NHL's mini-training camp following the 2012–13 NHL lockout.[9] Street was leading the Heat in scoring with 31 points in 44 games when an injury to Mikael Backlund led to his recall to the Calgary Flames on February 8, 2013.[11] He made his NHL debut the following night in a 5–1 loss to the Vancouver Canucks.[12]
On November 1, 2012, Street and Abbotsford Heat teammate, Steve McCarthy, set an AHL record for the fastest two successive goals scored. McCarthy beat Toronto Marlies goaltender, Ben Scrivens on a short handed opportunity four minutes and twenty-eight seconds into the third period. Street shot the puck immediately off the following face off, scoring another short handed goal. The two goals were officially recorded three seconds apart.[13]
On July 1, 2014, Street left the Flames and signed as a free agent to a two-year contract with the Colorado Avalanche.
After his second training camp with the Avalanche, Street was assigned to a new Avalanche AHL affiliate, the San Antonio Rampage, to begin the

Before being recalled, Street recorded 23 goals and 28 assists in 57 games with the Grand Rapids Griffins.[19] Following the conclusion of the Red Wings season, Street was assigned to the Griffins. Street appeared in six games for the Red Wings, recording one assist and eight shots on goal while averaging 8:15 time on ice.[20] During the 2017 Calder Cup playoffs, he ranked second on Grand Rapids and fourth in the AHL in postseason scoring, registering eight goals and 13 assists in 19 games. On June 27, 2017, Street signed a one-year contract extension with the Red Wings.[21] During the 2017–18 season, Street was the Griffins leading scorer, recording 21 goals and 44 assists in 73 regular season games. His 44 assists ranked third in the league, while his 65 points ranked fifth in the league in scoring. During the 2018 Calder Cup playoffs, he was the Griffins leading scorer, recording four goals and four assists in five games.[citation needed]
Street left the Red Wings as a free agent after two seasons to sign a one-year, $750,000 contract with the
On July 1, 2019, Street signed as a free agent, agreeing to a one-year, two-way contract with his fifth NHL team, the New Jersey Devils.[24]
