With 95 percent of AHL All-Stars making the NHL, Wednesday’s 2026 AHL All-Star Challenge offers a glimpse into the future of the league.

The 2026 AHL All-Star Challenge commences from the BMO Center in Rockford, IL, home of the Rockford IceHogs, on Wednesday night. The IceHogs are an AHL affiliate of the Chicago Blackhawks. This event gathers the league’s four divisions, which include the Atlantic, North, Central, and Pacific, into a round-robin, three-on-three tournament. There will be six games in this tournament, each lasting eight minutes. The two teams remaining with the best record will face off in an eight-minute championship game. Each roster will consist of 12 players, and this Challenge will be preceded by the AHL Hall of Fame Induction and Awards Ceremony, which starts at 12 p.m. ET. This year’s inductees will include Chris Bourque, who is the son of Hall of Famer Ray Bourque. The younger Borque played in the AHL for the Portland Pirates and Hershey Bears, and played for the Washington Capitals and Pittsburgh Penguins primarily in the NHL. Other Hall of Fame inductees will include Alexandre Giroux, Jim Wiemer, and Wendell Young.

The Central Division won the AHL All-Star Challenge in 2025 in a very memorable fashion. It was the Central Division’s first All-Star Challenge victory since 2017. The team beat the Atlantic Division in a 2-1 shootout in Palm Desert, CA. It was actually a Rockford IceHogs player who was the game’s Most Valuable Player. IceHogs defenseman Kevin Korchinski put up four points in the round-robin games and scored the deciding goal in the shootout of the championship game. This AHL All-Star Challenge was preceded by the AHL Skill Competition between the AHL Eastern and Western Conferences. The Eastern Conference held on to the 18-15 victory after an 8-1 start, with the Western Conference making it close in the end. Expect another hard-fought battle in the All-Star Challenge tonight.
