If you could change the outcome of one Stanley Cup Finals, which would it be?

    Too much choice but here are some choices that I can’t decide.

    1990.

    To make the Oilers legacy of the their Stanley Cups only because of Gretzky and see the image that was never meant to be seen : Raymond Bourque hoisting the Stanley Cup, on an ice with a Bruin jersey.

    1996.

    Sure the Panthers winning would be great and a good Cinderella, but not seeing the Avalanche wins in their first season after relocating from Quebec with a roster like this would be better.

    2003.

    To complete the biggest NHL Cinderella and to have Mighty Ducks on the cups aswell as Kariya and Oates.

  2. 2011 – possibly the worst officiating in a SCF series. Colin Campbell’s biased influence was transparent.

  3. Previous_Ad_6032

    09 another back to back and 5 in 12 years

  4. Barzal-13

    As an Isles fan 1984, we’d join Montreal as the only two teams in NHL history to win 5 in a row.

  5. Cheap_Honeydew2986

    2006 and (dare I say it as an oilers fan), 2004 Calgary deserved that win

    Oh and 2018 too

  6. adamempathy

    1999. Buffalo deserves to have won the cup at some point

  7. Formal_Committee9988

    2001 so devils go back to back and 3 in 4 years

  8. Formal_Committee9988

    2001 so devils go back to back and 3 in 4 years

  9. OrangeAdenaline

    2007. Spezza and Ottawa deserved better

  10. thatstachetho

    2004 Iginla deserved that cup with Kipper.

    IT WAS IN!

  11. Hockeytown11

    1996: Red Wings make comeback off Colorado’s 3-2 Series lead winning Conf. Final in 7 games, Sweep Florida in finals

  12. Changeit019

    1996 Avs were the better team, I don’t deny it. But as a Panthers fan of course I’d want to change the outcome.

    2011 would be my second choice for Lu.

  13. JumboThornton

    2016 – Thornton, Marleau, Pavelski, & Burns should have won a Cup together in San Jose

  14. Stonetoothed

    2010, Giroux gets a ring and I become a hockey fan 10 years sooner

  15. durtmcgurt

    That Dallas cup should have been Minnesota.

  16. miseenplastique

    Holy fuck, I think I’m gonna puke, but here goes:

    2021.

    There.

  17. thegodfaubel

    I’m torn because Ovi deserved his Cup in 2018, but how great would Vegas winning in their first year have been?

  18. BallsMahogany_redux

    2021. The Canadians were America’s team.

  19. Warm_Service_8694

    2009 Stanley Cup Finals….as a Wings fan, we blew this series and totally should have won the cup

  20. mickeydoogs

    2006. No injury to roli just to see what happens

  21. mynamehere999

    1993 to see Gretzky get a cup without the oilers or 2004 because I had a buddy playing on Calgary

  22. No-Ruin3761

    1975-Gilbert Perreault and the French Connection should have won a cup. Also, screw the Flyers.

  23. Allatura19

    2022. Brayden Point goes Christian Bale Batman and repairs his knee before the Finals.

  24. Meecha96

    2021. Habs win. Carey price can LTIRetire a cup winner.

  25. Distinct_Might7580

    1993 for Toronto. A Toronto Montreal final would be legendary, and I would have liked to see Clark and Gilmour get a cup.

  26. SensMintaka

    2007.

    Although if I had to pick a different team from my own?

    2017 because fuck Pittsburgh.

  27. Thebig2na82

    2009. I still carry that salt bucket like it’s a fresh wound. I absolutely hate Pittsburgh.

  28. NoleJawn

    2010 cause the Flyers deserve a better ending on that run

  29. Mandowarian

    Brett Hull’s skate in 1999.

    In. The. Crease.

  30. Blue_Period_89

    1994. Vancouver hit the post twice in 40 seconds…either of those goes in and it’s Canucks in 7.

    Also…fuck the Rangers.

  31. SSJ4Link

    Don’t know if I would change the outcome but game 6 of the 1999 Stanley Cup Finals should have never ended that way. Hull’s foot was clearly in the crease and it was never reviewed as it was all freaking season. What a stupid rule to start with, but after a year of that stupid rule they let the cup be decided on what clearly was a no goal under that rule.

  32. Guelph35

    1992 because it would’ve been sweet to see Chicago win both NHL and NBA titles at the same time.

    2019 because F the Blues

  33. Gillkid615

    If the penguins win back to back in 08/09 it fully makes up for the Crosby years lost and makes the Penguins run one of the best dynasties ever. With that being said, Fluery dominates the cup series and the Golden Knights beat the Capitals.

  34. 1919…. Canceled because of the Spanish Flu. Montreal conceded to Seattle because they couldn’t field a team to finish the series (Seattle was up 2-1) but Seattle wouldn’t accept the default win.
