Hockey lovers, get those jerseys ready because the Sudbury Bulldogs are gearing up for another round of chirps, chaos, and comeback glory. Shoresy, the foul-mouthed gem spun off from Letterkenny, just wrapped a wild Season 4 that left everyone buzzing. With the captain hanging up his skates in a gut-wrenching twist, folks can’t stop talking about what’s next. Crave dropped the bombshell renewal for Season 5 back in early January 2025, right before Season 4 hit screens. Hulu’s on board too, keeping the U.S. crowd in the game. Here’s the full breakdown on release dates, who’s lacing up again, and those juicy plot hints that have the rink-side crew losing their minds.
When Will Shoresy Season 5 Hit the Ice?
No one’s pinning down an exact drop date just yet – that’s the tease keeping fans glued to every update. But patterns don’t lie. The show’s been a machine since kicking off in 2022: Season 1 landed in May, Season 2 in September 2023, Season 3 followed suit, and Season 4 slid onto Crave January 24, 2025, with Hulu catching it February 26. Expect the same hustle for Season 5 – early 2026 feels like a safe bet, maybe even January or February to keep the momentum rolling.
Who’s Back on the Roster? Cast News and Returning Goons
The Bulldogs’ bench stays stacked with familiar faces, because nothing says Shoresy like that ragtag squad trading barbs and body checks. At the heart, Jared Keeso slips back into Shoresy – the trash-talking, mom-obsessed enforcer who’s equal parts hero and headache. Keeso’s not just starring; he’s writing and producing, so expect his stamp all over the chaos.
Taysa Teles returns as Nat, the no-nonsense team owner who’s got Shoresy’s number and isn’t afraid to dial it. She’s the glue holding this circus together, dishing out tough love amid the madness. Blair Lamora’s Ziigwan and Keilani Rose’s Miigwan – Nat’s sharp-as-ice sidekicks – are locked in too, bringing their unfiltered edge and sisterly fire to every scene. Jonathan-Ismaël Diaby slides back as Dolo, the smooth ex-NHL vet with rhymes for days and heart for the grind.
Terry Ryan, the ex-pro turned actor, rounds out the core as the lovable lug Hitch, always good for a laugh or a loyalty check. Fans are crossing sticks for cameos from the old guard – think JJ Frankie JJ or even a Letterkenny crossover nod – but nothing’s confirmed. Directors Dan and Sean Skene are helming again, ensuring that signature slapstick-meets-sentiment style. Fresh blood? Keep eyes peeled; the show’s got a knack for surprise drops that steal the show.
Shoresy Season 5 Potential Plot Details
Season 4 cranked the dial to 11, wrapping with the Bulldogs snagging that elusive cup after a brutal streak. But the real kicker? Shoresy calls it quits on the ice, battered by injuries and staring down a post-puck life. Summer in Sudbury brought barbecues, brawls, and blueberry-fueled distractions for the team, forcing everyone to face what comes after the glory.
Season 5 picks up those threads, diving headfirst into the fallout. How does a guy built for the boards adjust to the sidelines? Rumors swirl around Shoresy coaching up the next wave, maybe mentoring rookies while wrestling his own regrets. The Bulldogs, fresh off victory, grapple with complacency – new rivals, roster shakeups, and off-ice drama could test if “never lose again” was a promise or a pipe dream. Expect deeper dives into the crew’s worlds: Nat’s empire-building, the Indigenous players’ unyielding spirit, and those summer flings turning into full-season fireworks.
Writers are playing coy, but leaks suggest more heart than ever – think redemption arcs laced with raunchy rants. That Slap Shot spirit lives on, humanizing these roughnecks while cranking the comedy. Sudbury’s real-life ties, like charity games with NHL alums, bleed into the story, making it feel lived-in and legit.
