EXPO81 - Hope and Joy - FaraDian - 02-24-2025 With the hope that it will be a source of joy and inspiration to all the SHL, I am very excited to announce that the the S81 All Star Game will once again be in the 4-team EXPO format with some brand new twists. And oh yeah... WE'RE GOING TO DISNEYLAND! We're still trying to figure out where exactly to build the rink (I think we just take over the Soarin' building), but can reveal that we're tweaking the setup just a little and are already able to fulfill one of the most requested features from last season's All Star Week PT: instead of divisional squads, this season's teams will be drafted by four coaches! And not just any coaches, but bringing back four more Hall of Famers as player-coaches, one for each squad. The All Star Committee will vote in 64 SHL standouts to be drafted into 4 teams of 17 players each, to once again compete in a round-robin followed by a knock out round. But I won't keep you waiting any longer; here are the four HoF members returning for EXPO81... Cassius Darrow @hhh81 Oisin Fletcher @Evok Alex Light @Zoone16 Luukas Lilja @retuperkele I'll be back as player selections are made and the schedule comes into focus. For now, book your hotel and reserve your Lightning Lanes. We can't wait to see you all again!

No really, Team Darrow should fear their coach. He's crazy
