USHL seasons

The 2006–07 USHL season is the 27th season of the United States Hockey League as an all-junior league. The regular season began on October 5, 2006 and concluded on April 14, 2007[1] with the regular season champion winning the Anderson Cup. The 2006-07 season was the first for the Ohio Junior Blue Jackets.

The Clark Cup playoffs features all twelve teams playing in Division-based 7-game series in the opening round, followed by a quarterfinal round-robin where the winners of the opening round play each other team once. The semifinal matchups are made by pitting the top teams in the two round robin series against the second-place team from the opposite division in a single-elimination game with the two victors meeting in a single-game championship match.
