Chris Rose and Mark Shunock will serve as commentators. The program will also feature celebrities such as Anthony Anderson, Cedric the Entertainer, Cheri O'teri, George Lopez, Jamie Lee Curtis, Joel McHale, Michael Bublé, Nikki Glaser, Paula Abdul and Will Reeve, and NHL players including Tampa Bay Lightning's Victor Hedman, Carolina Hurricanes' Jaccob Slavin, Florida Panthers' Sam Bennett, Utah Mammoth's Alexander Kerfoot and Washington Capitals' Brandon Duhaime and Ryan Leonard.
"There's nothing more gratifying than to make content that actually changes lives, and in this case, both for the dogs needing homes and the families that adopt them. Two paws up to the NHL for doing their part to help pups in need and giving us this platform to show people how shelter dogs deserve to be part of every family's starting lineup," executive producer Michael Levitt said in a press release.
The Stanley Cup Finals will take place in June. Playoffs began April 19.
The Stanley Pup follows the 21st annual Puppy Bowl in February, which coincided with Super Bowl LIX, the National Football League championship game.

Martin, who created the series and also serves as co-showrunner with Ryan Scott, said some of their own life experiences helped inspire the series. "I was a wayward teen in the early 2000s, and my best friend was sent to one of these troubled teen institutes when she was 16," they told Netflix's Tudum. "She came back and had just the craziest stories about it." The series also stars Sydney Topliffe, Alyvia Alyn Lind, Brandon Jay McLaren, Tattiawna Jones, Isolde Ardies, Joshua Close, Patrick J. Adams, Patrick Gallagher, Gage Munroe and Byron Mann. Wayward premieres Sept. 25 on Netflix.
