In 2007 he crowned his strong season with a goal in the playoff final, which finally culminated with victory in the championship and the German Ice Hockey Cup with the Eagles.
Leading player with the Cologne Sharks
For the 2008/09 season , Christoph Ullmann was once again committed by the then Haie coach Doug Mason from the Cologne ice hockey club and reigning runner-up, where he should take on a leadership role. Ullmann was his team's best scorer that season, but could not prevent an overall disappointing season for the Domstadt team. In the 2010/2011 season , Ullmann was named captain of the Haie by then coach Bill Stewart , was the best point player on his team, scored a hat trick in the local derby against the DEG Metro Stars and was among the top 10 goalscorers in the league.

In the 2014/15 season , Ullmann was able to celebrate his second German championship with the Adler with a 4-2 win in the final series against ERC Ingolstadt after first place in the main round . On October 14, 2016 in the 2016/17 season in a 4-2 home win against Fischtown Pinguins Bremerhaven , Ullmann scored his 151st goal for the Adler, replacing René Corbét as the record scorer. When Ullmann left the Adler at the end of the 2017/18 season after a total of twelve seasons, he had scored 135 goals and 145 assists in 561 DEL games for the Kurpfälzer and was thus both top scorer and goalscorer in the "all-time best list" when he left " of the club.
Change to the Augsburg panthers
At the age of 34, he signed a contract with the DEL team Augsburger Panther for the 2018/19 season . This season, the Panthers played one of their most successful main rounds in the club's history and Ullmann's contract was extended for another season in January 2019. In the play-offs, the Swabians reached the semi-finals, with Ullmann having to be resuscitated by the Düsseldorf team doctor in the quarter-final game on March 29, 2019 against the Düsseldorfer EG after a gang check by John Henrion .
