The adorable pup made a special appearance on NBC10's Philly Live, along with Flyers Legend Bob "The Hound" Kelly, Nick Liermann of Team Foster and CEO of America's Vet Dogs Mike Rosen.

Liermann shared that moving forward, Stanley will start his working journey, getting out in the public, socializing, and learning the sights and sounds of the world.

This pup might not score goals, but one day he will be someone’s MVP.
