Jason Herter left after the 2010-11 season to become an assistant coach at the University of Minnesota-Duluth.

In December 1995, Herter was recalled by the New York Islanders after multiple injuries to Islanders defencemen. On December 7, Herter made his NHL debut in a 7–4 loss to the Hartford Whalers. Herter was one of the bright spots in the Islanders' loss, as he was on the ice for three of New York's four goals and none of Hartford's seven goals. He also assisted on Zigmund Palffy's second goal of the game and was partnered on defence with NHL All-Star Mathieu Schneider.

Herter represented Canada at one International Ice Hockey Federation-sanctioned event, winning gold at the 1990 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships in Helsinki, Finland. Herter also represented Canada at the 1990 Goodwill Games where Canada finished in fourth place.

Despite being drafted, Herter returned to North Dakota for his sophomore season. He also had the option of joining the Saskatoon Blades, the team that held Western Hockey League rights, but chose North Dakota because the Canucks had five other prospects playing there. Throughout the season, Herter suffered from chronic groin injuries and a knee sprain which limited him to only 38 games. However, despite his injury-plagued season, Herter scored eleven goals and 39 assists. Nine of his eleven goals were scored on the powerplay, a North Dakota single-season record for a defenceman. Further, his 39 assists and fifty points are both fourth all-time for a defenceman in a single season with the Fighting Sioux. For his performance, Herter was named to the WCHA Second All-Star Team as well as the All-Tournament Team at the 1990 WCHA Men's Ice Hockey Tournament.

In July and August 1990, Herter was a member of the Canadian team at the 1990 Goodwill Games in Seattle, Washington. After finishing the round robin with a 3–0 record, the Canadian team lost 5–4 in a shootout against the United States in their semifinal game and 6–1 to Sweden in the bronze medal game to finish the tournament in fourth place.

Drafted in the first round, eighth overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft, Herter played one National Hockey League (NHL) game, scoring an assist in a game with the New York Islanders during the 1995–96 season.

Following his Centennial Cup-winning season with Notre Dame, Herter moved to the University of North Dakota to play college hockey with the North Dakota Fighting Sioux of the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA). Midway through his freshman season, Herter was ranked as the top player available at the 1989 NHL Entry Draft by the NHL Central Scouting Bureau. Herter finished his freshman season with eight goals and 24 assists in 41 games. His 24 assists and 32 points set single-season freshmen assist and point records at North Dakota, although his point record has since been broken. Following the season, Herter entered the 1989 NHL Entry Draft ranked second overall among North American skaters, dropping one position in the NHL Central Scouting Bureau's final draft ranking. On June 17, 1989, he was drafted 8th overall by the Vancouver Canucks.

Herter represented Canada at one International Ice Hockey Federation-sanctioned event. In July 1989, he was among 32 players invited to the Canadian national junior team's summer evaluation camp in Kitchener, Ontario for the 1990 World Junior Ice Hockey Championships. Later that year in December, Herter was invited to the national junior team training camp, after which he was named to the final Canadian roster for the tournament despite finishing training camp with a groin injury. Herter finished the tournament with one assist in seven games as Canada achieved a 5–1–1 record to win the gold medal.

During the 1986–87 season, he played on the Hounds midget team that placed second at the 1987 Air Canada Cup in Gloucester, Ontario. His 86-87 high school hockey teammates included future NHLers Scott Pellerin (1992 Hobey Baker Winner as the best player in NCAA college hockey), Rod Brind'amour, Jeff Batters and Joby Messier Herter remained with the Hounds for the next season when the team moved from minor hockey to Junior A, joining the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL). In the team's first season, Herter scored 38 points in 54 games as the Hounds won the Credential Cup as SJHL champions. After winning the Anavet Cup and Abbott Cup, the Hounds advanced to the 1988 Centennial Cup in Pembroke, Ontario.
