For the next two years, Aucoin played mostly for Carolina's new AHL farm team, the Albany River Rats .

On July 3, 2008, Aucoin signed as a free agent with the Washington Capitals , but he was handed over to the cadre of the Hershey Bears farm team .

In July 2013, he signed a one-year contract with the St. Louis Blues . There he was in the extended squad to prepare for the season, but could not prevail and was returned to the Chicago Wolves , the Blues farm team , in September 2013 .
