2018 Eastside Elite All-Star Game set for July 26

By @StefanKubus –

Mark your calendars; the annual Eastside Elite All-Star Game is almost here.

League founder and Chesterfield native Steve Oleksy has announced that four teams of the Eastside Elite League’s very best will square off on Thursday, July 26 at the Mount Clemens Ice Arena.

This year, each of the four teams will wear specialty jerseys to represent a cause: ALS awareness, autism awareness, concussion prevention and the Special Olympics. Those jerseys will be autographed and auctioned off.

Those four teams will be headlined by some major hockey names, as Igor Larionov, Chris Chelios, Todd Bertuzzi and Sergei Samsonov are all involved in the 2018 Eastside ASG.

Check out our highlight video from last year’s All-Star Game:

MiHockey will have the finalized rosters when the selection process is complete.

Proceeds from the game and the league’s golf outing will also benefit the four aforementioned causes. Tickets are currently available for pre-order; contact “Commissioner” Oleksy on Twitter. The Eastside Elite League features names like Dylan Larkin, Zach Werenski, Tyler Motte, Vlad Namestnikov and Danny DeKeyser.
