A total of 22 former USHL on-ice officials have earned a contract to work in the National Hockey League — David Banfield, Jacob Brenk, Tom Chmielewski, Chris Ciamaga, Ryan Daisy, Harry Dumas, John Grandt, Beaudry Halkidis, Mitchell Hunt, Justin Kea, Mark Lemelin, Brian Mach, Peter MacDougall, Kilian McNamara, CJ Murray, Bryan Pancich, Brian Pochmara, Chris Rooney, Jordan Samuels-Thomas, Furman South, Ian Walsh, and Scott Zelkin.
