After Erlich stood out with good performances at the Guelph Storm and achieved a quota of a little more than one point per game, the EC Red Bull Salzburg from the Erste Bank Eishockey Liga noticed the striker and signed him in April 2011 . First he was given a contract for the 2011/12 season . The attacker made his competitive debut for Salzburg in August 2011 in the European Trophy . During the European Trophy he scored two goals and one assist in eight games. In the EBEL, he scored one goal and six assists in 16 games. In late November 2011 he returned to his Canadian homeland, where he was on the ice for the Barrie Colts in the Ontario Hockey League until the end of the season. For the 2012/13 season, Erlich moved to the Western Ontario Mustangs , who play for the Canadian University Championship.
