Pecker made his professional debut with the Cincinnati Mighty Ducks of the American Hockey League (AHL) in the 2002–03 season. He would spend his entire North American professional career in the AHL, including with the Binghamton Senators, Manitoba Moose, and San Antonio Rampage; with the exception of two brief stints in the ECHL with the San Diego Gulls and Phoenix RoadRunners.[1]

Pecker moved to Europe and signed with HC Lausanne of the Swiss League in 2007.[1] He spent five seasons in the Swiss League, also playing for EHC Visp and EHC Olten. In 2012, he played seven games for the Sheffield Steelers of the EIHL, before retiring from professional hockey in 2013.
