Beginning his career in Norway for Vålerenga Ishockey of the GET-ligaen, Ask moved to North America and had spells in the CHL with the Laredo Bucks in the 2002–2003 season and the ECHL with the Toledo Storm and the Las Vegas Wranglers. In 2005 he moved to Finland's SM-liiga and spent a season with SaiPa. In 2006 he moved to Sweden and signed with Djurgården where he played until 2007 before moving to Füchse Duisburg in Germany's Deutsche Eishockey Liga during the 2007–08 season. After the insolvence of Duisburg, Ask signed a contract with Nürnberg Ice Tigers on July 7, 2009.{{Cite web |url=http://www.icetigers.de/ICETIGERS/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=150:ice-tigers-verpflichten-morten-ask&catid=1:aktuelle-nachrichten&Itemid=76 |title=Ice Tigers verpflichten Morten Ask |access-date=July 8, 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110719043538/http://www.icetigers.de/ICETIGERS/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=150:ice-tigers-verpflichten-morten-ask&catid=1:aktuelle-nachrichten&Itemid=76 |archive-date=July 19, 2011 |url-status=dead }} He then signed try-out contracts with first HC Sparta Praha of the Czech Extraliga, and then with Lørenskog IK of the GET-ligaen, but he wasn't offered an extension with any of the two teams.
