Season 5 of Shoresy has officially dropped the puck, delivering one of the most anticipated Canadian television returns of the year. The cult-favorite hockey comedy premiered its first two episodes on Christmas Day, December 25, 2025, on Crave in Canada, instantly reigniting the chaotic, foul-mouthed, and oddly heartfelt world of the Sudbury Blueberry Bulldogs. From the opening minutes, it is clear that this is not simply another chapter — it is a turning point for Shoresy himself, the team he leads, and the future of the league they are fighting to protect.




This season pivots around a bold and timely theme: defending the soul of North American hockey. The Bulldogs are no longer just scrapping to stay relevant — they are positioning themselves as guardians of a game that is being reshaped by money, politics, and shifting priorities. At the center of that mission stands Shoresy, who begins his evolution from pure enforcer and emotional wildcard into something more complicated and more powerful — a coach.
For the first time, Shoresy is not only battling opponents on the ice but also learning how to command the bench, manage egos, and shape the future of his players. This new dynamic dramatically reshapes his long-running relationship with Sanguinet, who previously held the coaching role on his own. Their uneasy partnership creates one of the season’s most compelling emotional arcs, blending sharp humor with genuine tension as both men wrestle with authority, responsibility, and the weight of leadership.
The season follows a tight six-episode structure, allowing the storylines to stay focused and punchy. Crave launched the season with a two-episode holiday premiere, immediately pulling viewers into the new era of Bulldogs hockey. Episode 3 arrives on January 1, 2026, followed by weekly Thursday releases through January 22, 2026, when the season finale caps off what is shaping up to be one of the show’s most consequential runs to date.
International audiences are also getting their chance to jump into the action. Canadian viewers can stream the full season on Crave as episodes release. In Australia, Shoresy fans were welcomed back beginning December 26, 2025, via SBS On Demand. In the United States, Hulu has not yet announced a precise release date, but past seasons indicate the full run will likely become available in late January 2026, keeping American fans only a short skate behind their northern neighbors.
The familiar faces that helped make Shoresy a cult sensation are all back on the ice. Jared Keeso returns as Shoresy, continuing to balance absurdist comedy with surprising emotional depth. Tasya Teles is back as Nat, the business-minded heart of the Bulldogs organization, while Harlan Blayne Kytwayhat returns as Sanguinet, whose evolving role becomes one of the most important storylines of the season. Former NHL player Terry Ryan once again brings Hitch’s unfiltered charm and veteran presence to the locker room, anchoring the team’s old-school spirit.

Season 5 also continues the show’s deep connection to Sudbury, Ontario, where filming once again highlights real local landmarks that fans have come to recognize as part of the Shoresy identity. Locations such as Peppi Panini, The Dog House Sports Bar, and The Grand Theatre serve as more than backdrops — they reinforce the show’s working-class roots and its commitment to portraying hockey culture as something lived, not staged.
For viewers looking to fully embrace the Shoresy lifestyle beyond the screen, official Shoresy merchandise, collectibles, and gear are available through The Vending Lot’s Shoresy collection, offering fans a way to rep their Bulldogs pride and keep the spirit of the show alive between episodes.
With sharper stakes, deeper character development, and a storyline that asks what it really means to protect the game of hockey, Shoresy Season 5 is not simply continuing a fan-favorite series — it is redefining it. The Bulldogs are no longer just scrapping to survive. They are fighting for something bigger, and Shoresy is stepping into the kind of leadership role that could change everything. For longtime fans and new viewers alike, this season delivers exactly what Shoresy does best: big hits, bigger laughs, and a surprising amount of heart.
