As in the past 35 years the Illinois Boys Showcase Team was chosen from 120 high school junior and senior players. Of the 120 coach-nominated players who attended the Showcase tryout, a team of 20 was chosen to represent Illinois at the America’s Showcase in St. Louis, Missouri, which was sponsored by Missouri Hockey and the Mid-States Club Hockey Association (MSCHA). As in many of the preceding years, the 2019 Boys Showcase team was stacked, and were once again favored to go to the finals. However, this year was different from the past 7 years; this team did not play in the final game of the event. This team was stopped by Texas in the semi-final game.
