1908 Stanley Cup Champions: Tampa Bay Lightning
The Tampa Bay Lightning have won their first Stanley Cup. They beat the Islanders in five games in the East Quarterfinals, won a Game 7 in New Jersey to beat the Devils, swept their in-state rival Florida Panthers, and held off a Los Angeles Kings team who has had much playoff success. The Lightning went 16-6 in the postseason.
Interesting note: The Boston Bruins are the only team to clinch the Stanley Cup at home, in the inaugural 1901 season. All seven Stanley Cup winners since then have clinched on the road.
