2025 CCM Chi-Town Shuffle Recap
The Windy City was buzzing with energy as the CCM Chi-Town Shuffle stormed into town, welcoming 428 teams ready to chase championship glory! With games played at 29 different venues across Chicago, the weekend delivered an electrifying mix of elite competition, highlight-reel moments, and non-stop hockey action.
The action kicked off with a bang on opening night at Seven Bridges Ice Arena, where the highly anticipated Dangle Derby took center stage. Some of hockey’s top creators—Swaggy Pete, Jacob Ardown, Olly Postanin, and Chelsea Dinnin—joined forces with a select group of CCM athletes for an accuracy shooting contest and a breakaway shootout. Shooters included Drystan Thomas, Max Gerspach, Wyatt Michalski, Drake Defehr, and Luke Fanella. Between the pipes, Noah Kieffer, Alexander Miller, David Stefaniakk, and Nolan Melo stood tall.
The creators dominated the accuracy contest, which came down to a dramatic sudden death showdown between Chelsea Dinnin and Swaggy Pete. Chelsea stole the show, going a perfect four-for-four to take the title in unforgettable fashion. The night rolled right into the non-stop breakaway relay as the Dangle Derby officially kicked off, with dazzling moves that had the crowd on its feet. Meanwhile, the upstairs turf was packed all night long at Howies Hockeytown, where vendors, games, and giveaways kept the excitement going strong.
From the first puck drop to the final buzzer of championship Sunday, players brought passion, grit, and game-breaking skill to every shift. The atmosphere was electric as 34 thrilling championship games capped the weekend—each one a true showcase of teamwork, heart, and determination.
The weekend was truly massive. The weekend featured a total of 6,832 goals scored, for an impressive average of 7.21 goals per game. There were 34 champions crowned after 948 games were played.
