CANUCKS ALUMNI ANNOUNCE ALL-STAR ROSTER FOR UPCOMING SHORESY CLASSIC GAME AT ROGERS ARENA
The Shoresy Classic is coming to Rogers Arena on Monday, January 26, 2026, for a one-night-only hockey showdown that promises big laughs, big hits, and unforgettable moments on the ice – and the Vancouver Canucks Alumni are part of the action!
Following a sold-out fall tour, the Shoresy Classic Winter Series — presented by Puppers Golden Lager and produced by New Metric Media in association with Play Fun Games — is taking the hard-hitting humour of Shoresy on the road once again. The Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs, played by the Shoresy cast, will go head-to-head against the Vancouver Canucks Alumni in a matchup that brings the worlds of comedy and professional hockey together for one electric night.
Adding to the excitement, a portion of the proceeds will benefit the Vancouver Canucks Alumni Foundation in support of the Boys & Girls Club of South Coast BC and Athletics 4 Kids.
“The Vancouver Canucks Alumni are thrilled to team up with the cast of Shoresy for this unique and entertaining charity hockey game at Rogers Arena,” said Arthur Griffiths, Chairman of the Vancouver Canucks Alumni Foundation. “We’re putting together a strong Alumni roster ready to take on the Shoresy squad, all in the spirit of fun and giving back. Most importantly, we’re incredibly grateful to be the charitable beneficiary of this exciting event, which will directly support the work we do in the community.”
Fans can expect to see a stacked lineup of Vancouver Canucks Alumni lacing up against the Shoresy cast. Highlights from the Canucks Alumni roster includes Daniel & Henrik Sedin, Geoff Courtnall, Cliff Ronning, Greg Adams, Chris Higgins, Kyle Wellwood, Kirk McLean, Adrian Aucoin, Eddie Lack and many more. Additionally, fans will see Stan Smyl, Dave Babych and Jyrki Lumme working hard behind the bench for the Canucks Alumni.
On the other bench, the Shoresy cast members facing off against the Canucks Alumni include Jared Keeso (Shoresy), Terry Ryan (Hitch), Jonathan Diaby (JoDolo), Jon Mirasty (Jim #1), Brandon Nolan (Jim #2), Jordan Nolan (Jim #3), Max Bouffard (JJ Frankie JJ), and more. The on-screen Bulldogs will bring their trademark intensity, chirps, and camaraderie to the ice, this time facing real NHL legends in a spirited, fan-fueled game.
