The club was founded in 1947, as a successor of sorts to the Antwerp All-Stars. The All-Stars were a select team comprised of Canadians playing abroad in Belgium. They were organized to play an exhibition game against the Trail Smoke Eaters, who were on a warm-up tour of Europe prior to their participation in the 1939 World Ice Hockey Championships. 21,000 spectators packed the recently-opened Sportpalais Merksem on January 29, 1939, to watch the Smoke Eaters defeat the All-Stars by a score of 7-0.
