I think this is the obvious choice but it's definitely the correct choice. The team is going to be getting a dog together! The dog is of course going to have a specific owner and Sad Ketchup volunteered to be that person, but he'll be at the rink every day for practice to lighten the mood and give everyone a reason to smile even on the days after a tough loss.

The dog will be a golden retriever and he'll get to come out on the ice sometimes to run around and chase after pucks.

Between all of that Sad Ketchup's family will take care of the dog. Mostly it'll fall on Ketchup but being on the road so much requires some help from others. Ketchup also has a personal chef who volunteered to help out as long as he stays employed. That's called job security folks.

The dog's name is Toast and he's got a big adorable goofy smile.
