Following his release from the Marlies, Gormley opted to accept a European offer, signing a one-year deal with Swedish outfit, Mora IK of the SHL, on October 16, 2017.

On July 28, 2016, Gormley was signed as a free agent to a one-year, two-way contract with the New Jersey Devils.

On July 31, 2015, Gormley was re-signed by the Coyotes to a one-year, two-way contract. Unable to develop as the Coyotes had hoped and with his eligibility to waivers, Gormely was traded by Arizona to the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for the rights to restricted-free agent Stefan Elliott on September 9, 2015. Gormley made the Avalanche roster to begin the 2015–16 season, making his debut with Colorado in a 1–0 overtime defeat to the Carolina Hurricanes on October 21, 2015. Used in a depth role, Gormley recorded his first point with the Avs in his 22nd game, registering an assist in a 3–1 victory over the St. Louis Blues on December 13, 2015. Unable to secure a position on the blueline, Gormley was placed on waivers by the Avalanche on January 7, 2016. After going unclaimed, he was later assigned to former AHL club, the San Antonio Rampage, on January 13, 2016. Gormley remained with the Rampage until the season closed, and on June 27, 2016, he was not offered a new contract from the Avalanche, releasing him to free agency.

In the second year of his entry-level contract, Gormley remained with the Pirates, quickly assuming leadership responsibilities to be selected as an Alternate Captain for the 2013–14 season. Gormley was used heavily in all situations with the Pirates, and was placing 8th in the AHL in scoring amongst blueliners, before he received his first NHL recall by Phoenix on March 7, 2014. He made his NHL debut on March 10, 2014, against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Gormley featured in 5 games with the Coyotes going scoreless before he was returned to Portland to finish the season with new career offensive highs all across the board.

Approaching the final year of his rookie contract with the Coyotes, Gormley failed to establish a first team position and was familiarly reassigned to the Portland Pirates to begin the 2014–15 season. During his first recall of the season to Arizona, Gormley scored his first NHL goal on November 16, 2014, against Ben Scrivens of the Edmonton Oilers. With the Coyotes languishing in the standings, Gormley was recalled on several occasions throughout the season, and although given opportunity failed to cement a regular position among the defense corps. He finished the season having appeared in a career high 27 games for 4 points.

Playing in his third QMJHL season, Gormley recorded 13 goals and 48 points over 47 games; he was named to the QMJHL Second All-Star Team for the second consecutive year. He added an assist over five post-season games as the Wildcats were eliminated in the first round of the QMJHL playoffs, failing to defend their league title.

Gormley participated in the Canadian national junior team's selection camp for the 2010 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, but failed to make the under-20 team as a 17-year-old. He was expected to participate in the 2011 tournament, but was sidelined with a knee injury. The following year, he was selected to the team for the 2012 World Juniors, held in Alberta. During the preliminary round, he was named Canada's player of the game after scoring two goals and an assist in a 10–2 win against Denmark. He was named Top Defenseman of the tournament in addition to being named to the tournament All-Star team.

He improved to 9 goals and 43 points for the Wildcats in 2009–10 and added 17 more points in the playoffs, the third highest post-season total among league defencemen. Gormley and the Wildcats won the President's Cup as QMJHL champions, earning a berth in the 2010 Memorial Cup.
