The 2012–13 USHL season is the 33rd season of the United States Hockey League as an all-junior league. The regular season begins on September 28, 2012 and will conclude on April 13, 2013[1] with the regular season champion winning the Anderson Cup.

The playoffs began on April 16, 2013 and completed on May 17, 2013.[2] The top four teams from each conference compete for the Clark Cup, with all series played in a best-of-five format.[3]

This season is the 21st season in which one team captured both the Anderson Cup and the Clark Cup in the same season. It is the first time the Dubuque Fighting Saints have accomplished this feat.
