1910 Stanley Cup Champions: New York Rangers
The NHL playoffs in 1910 were chock full of upsets, and the team lucky enough to be standing in the end with the Stanley Cup hoisted over their heads was the New York Rangers, a team who went only 84-78. But it's not about having a great regular season, it's about winning when it counts. And the Rangers showed that they could, with a 16-7 record in the postseason. In doing so, they knocked off a tough Thrashers team in five games, beat their rival Islanders in five games, unseated the two-time defending Stanley Cup Champion Lightning in seven games, and defeated a scrappy Minnesota Wild team in the Finals.
Interesting note: In the ten Stanley Cup Finals, the Eastern Conference is 8-2.
