USHL seasons

The 2011–12 USHL season is the 32nd season of the United States Hockey League as an all-junior league. The regular season began on September 30, 2011 and concluded on April 14, 2012[1] with the regular season champion winning the Anderson Cup.

The playoffs began on April 16, 2012 and completed on May 23, 2012.[2] The top six teams from each conference compete for the Clark Cup.

This season is the 20th season in which the same team captured both the Anderson Cup and the Clark Cup in the same season. It is the third time the Green Bay Gamblers have accomplished this feat (1995-96, 2009-10 and the 2011-12 seasons).
