Meissner played junior hockey with the Humboldt Indians, Estevan Bruins and Flin Flon Bombers from 1956 to 1959. In 1959, Meissner turned professional with the Boston Bruins, and alternately played with the Bruins and minor league teams until 1963, when he was traded to the New York Rangers.

Meissner returned in 1974 with the Portland Buckaroos, but only played part of the season, and retired afterward.
