Miranda Lambert Teams Up With NHL For Stanley Pup
Noted animal lovers Miranda Lambert, and Mickey Guyton will appear on a National Hockey League-sponsored Stanley Pup program, to promote animal adoption services.
The one-hour special is a creative partnership by the NHL and the nonprofit organization Petco Love and is centred around a friendly competition featuring adoptable rescue dogs.
Stanley Pup will coincide with the hockey world’s celebration of the ongoing 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, with each of the NHL’s 32 teams represented by an adoptable dog.
The 16 dogs that represent the teams that qualified for the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs will ultimately face off in a friendly competition of their canine skills.
NHL Chief Content Officer Steve Mayer said the national nonprofit organization Petco Love will provide dogs for the competition through their shelter partners across the country.
“At the NHL, we love supporting great causes and the opportunity to produce a program that finds homes for rescue dogs is so fulfilling. The show promises to be great fun and we can’t wait for our participating puppies Nathan McKibble, Joe Pawvelski, Alexander O-fetch-kin and many more to hit our ‘Stanley Pup’ rink.”
Stanley Pup will air on Sportsnet for fans in Canada on Saturday, June 8, at 6:30 p.m.
