Paths to the Finals

The defending champion Boston Bruins had an outstanding season. Their final record of 38–5–1 translates to an .875 winning percentage, the best in NHL history. The team did not lose two games in a row all season, until being swept by the Canadiens. This prompted the change for the following year in the Finals format to a best-of-five format.

Game summaries

The final was a best of three series. The Canadiens had lost all four of their regular-season meetings with the Bruins. Captain Sylvio Mantha was the leader, scoring in both final games.

Game one saw the Bruins play way below their usual form and George Hainsworth picked up a shutout. In game two, Howie Morenz scored what proved to be the winning goal at 17:50 of the second period and the Canadiens won the Stanley Cup. It was the first time all year that the Bruins lost two games in a row.

Montreal won the series 2–0

Stanley Cup engraving
  • Mistake – Georges Richer was engraved as a physician, but his official title was a member of the board directors.
  • Mistake – co-owner Louis A. Letourneau was misspelt H.A. LETOURNEAU.
  • *-The Team Physician and one Ass't trainers first names are unknown.
  • Montreal included the date, day, game number, location, and score for each playoff game on the Stanley Cup. In 1930, 1931, 1932, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939 each playoff game, date and score by the winning team were included on the Stanley Cup.
gollark: It's probably not very fast if being run on CPU.
gollark: The ones you're using might use something other than VQGAN but it's basically the same thing.
gollark: Instead of using something something backpropagation to optimise the match between the text and VQGAN output image a neural network is used to approximate that.
gollark: There's "feedforward CLIP VQGAN" or something which is *much* faster but worse.
gollark: Anyway, excluding the tensor cores and VRAM, standard colab's T4s are worse than a 1080 Ti. The K80 is worse than most recent things and you often get those now.
