As a free agent after five seasons with the Iowa Wild, Beck was left unsigned with the delayed 2020–21 North American season due to the [COVID-19 pandemic](/source/COVID-19_pandemic). On December 10, 2020, Beck agreed to a one-year contract with German second-tier club, [EV Landshut](/source/EV_Landshut) of the [DEL2](/source/DEL2), however with concerns over his family's health with the birth of a newborn, and the commencement of a lockdown through Germany, Beck was released from his contract on December 16, 2020.[5]

On February 12, 2021, having returned to Canada, Beck was signed to a professional tryout contract with the [Stockton Heat](/source/Stockton_Heat) of the AHL.[6] Remaining with the Heat for the shortened [2020–21](/source/2020-21_AHL_season) season, Beck collected 1 goal and 6 points in 21 games.

As a free agent, Beck decided to recommit to a European career, agreeing to a one-year contract with Austrian-based club, Dornbirn Bulldogs of the ICEHL, on August 25, 2021.[7]

In June 2022, he signed for Norwegian [Eliteserien](/source/Eliteserien_(ice_hockey)) club [Stavanger Oilers](/source/Stavanger_Oilers).[8] In the last game of the [2022–23 season](/source/2022%E2%80%9323_Fjordkraftligaen_season), Beck scored two goals as Stavanger Oilers beat [Storhamar](/source/Storhamar_Hockey) 3–0 to become Norwegian champions.[9]
