SPRINGFIELD, MA – The American Hockey League has announced the 2025 AHL All-Star Rosters presented by FloHockey.
Twelve players on the rosters will represent each of the AHL’s four divisions for the 2025 AHL All-Star Classic presented by Spotlight 29 Casino, to be held February 2-3 in Palm Desert, Calif. Rosters were determined by committees of AHL coaches, and at least one All-Star represents all 32 AHL teams.
The 2025 AHL All-Star Rosters, presented by FloHockey, feature 36 first-time AHL All-Stars and 13 rookies, as well as 12 former first-round NHL draft choices and eight second-round picks. In addition, 20 of the All-Stars named have also played in the National Hockey League already this season, including Cleveland’s Denton Mateychuk (Columbus), Grand Rapids’ Sebastian Cossa (Detroit), Texas’s Lian Bichsel and Justin Hryckowian (Dallas), and Utica’s Seamus Casey (New Jersey), who have all made their NHL debuts in 2024-25.
Based on their teams owning the best record in their division at the end of play on Dec. 31, Charlotte Checkers head coach Geordie Kinnear, Toronto Marlies head coach John Gruden, Grand Rapids Griffins head coach Dan Watson and Calgary Wranglers head coach Trent Cull have been selected to serve as coaches for the event. (Cull currently serves as an interim assistant coach with the Calgary Flames; Joe Cirella is the Wranglers’ interim head coach until he returns.)
The 2025 AHL All-Star Classic presented by Spotlight 29 Casino will include the AHL All-Star Skills Competition presented by Silvercrest on Sunday, February 2 (9 ET/6 PT), followed by the AHL Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Ceremony presented by Spotlight 29 Casino and Silvercrest on Monday, February 3 (2 p.m. ET/11 a.m. PT) and the 2025 AHL All-Star Challenge presented by Spotlight 29 Casino that evening (9 ET/6 PT). For ticket information, fans can visit cvfirebirds.com/allstar.
The Skills Competition will pit the All-Stars from the two Eastern Conference divisions against those from the two Western Conference divisions in seven skills events. In the AHL All-Star Challenge, the four teams will participate in a 3-on-3 round-robin tournament to determine the All-Star champions.
