He played defense and shot left-handed. A top prospect out of high school, O'Sullivan was drafted by the Calgary Flames in the 2nd round, 30th overall in the 1992 NHL Entry Draft.

Towards the end of the 1998–1999 season O'Sullivan was traded to the New York Rangers. He played 10 games with the Rangers minor league affiliate Hartford Wolf Pack before being released by the Rangers at the end of the season. For the 1999–2000 season O'Sullivan was signed by the Vancouver Canucks. He played the majority of the season with the Syracuse Crunch while also playing 11 games with the Canucks. After the season he was again released and picked up by the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. He played the whole 2000–2001 season with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks, scoring 49 points in 60 games. For the 2001–2002 season O'Sullivan played overseas in Switzerland with the Kloten Flyers. After 1 season in Switzerland O'Sullivan returned to the Mighty Ducks for the 2002–2003 season.
