As a free agent from the Eagles, Ully continued in the AHL, securing a one-year contract with the Hershey Bears on August 12, 2019.[5]
After two seasons within the Bears organization, Ully left North America and signed a European contract with Slovakian club, HKM Zvolen, on July 8, 2021.[6] He made 14 appearances with Zvolen, collecting 11 points before ending his stint with the club on November 10, 2021. After that Ully played for HK Poprad in the Slovak Extraliga and he earned 34 points.[7]
