Patrick Kane (Detroit Red Wings), Quinn Hughes (Minnesota Wild), Jason Robertson (Dallas Stars), Drew Doughty (Los Angeles Kings), Tyler Seguin (Dallas Stars), Seth Jones (Florida Panthers), Matthew Barzal (New York Islanders), Kyle Connor (Winnipeg Jets), Dylan Larkin (Detroit Red Wings), John Tavares (Toronto Maple Leafs), Jonathan Toews (Winnipeg Jets), Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (Edmonton Oilers), JT Miller (New York Rangers), Taylor Hall (Carolina Hurricanes) and Cam Fowler (St. Louis Blues).

The Showcase routinely takes place in Metro-Detroit in the Spring and features best-on-best action for multiple age groups each season. The Showcase has found a home at Buffalo Wild Wings Arena (formerly Troy Sports Center), in Troy, Michigan, and this year will run May 29th-31st, 2026.
