The hour-long special will see adoptable rescue dogs—representing the NHL teams that qualified for the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs—face off in a friendly competition.

“I’m so proud to launch this canine sporting spectacular with the NHL, and so grateful for their passion in supporting adoption. The show is sure to be the biggest night of the year for dog-loving hockey fans,” creator and producer Michael Levitt said in a statement. “The cuteness overload is going to be off the charts! I can’t wait to show viewers how special rescue dogs are and how profoundly they enhance our lives when we welcome them into our families.”
