The 1935 Stanley Cup Finals was contested by the Montreal Maroons and the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Maroons won the series 3–0 to win their second and final Stanley Cup. The Maroons are the last defunct team to ever win the Cup, as the team disbanded three years later, and were also the last non-Original Six team to win the championship until the Philadelphia Flyers in 1974.
Paths to the Finals
Toronto defeated the Boston Bruins in a best-of-five 3–1 to advance to the Finals.
The Maroons had to play a total-goals series; 1–0 against Chicago Black Hawks, and win a second two-game total-goals series 5–4 against the New York Rangers to advance to the Finals.
Game summaries
Maroons manager-coach Tommy Gorman became the only coach to win successive Stanley Cup titles with two different teams after winning with the Chicago Black Hawks in the 1934 Stanley Cup Finals.[1]
Maroons goaltender Alex Connell allowed just four goals in the three games.

Stanley Cup engraving
- Bill MacKenzie was loaned to New York Rangers on 1935-01-29. In the Stanley Cup Semi-Finals, the Maroons defeated the Rangers, while MacKenzie played in a losing cause for the Rangers. He was included on the Stanley Cup and team picture. However, under NHL rules MacKenzie was disqualified from winning the Stanley Cup because he was a member of the Rangers when the Maroons won it. MacKenzie only played five games for the Maroons in the 1934-35 season. He officially won the Stanley Cup with Chicago in 1938.
- In 1934 Tommy Gorman (Manager-Coach) led the Chicago Black Hawks to the Stanley Cup. In the off-season, Gorman was fired after a dispute with President/Owner Fredric McLaughlin. Montreal Maroons hired Gorman as (Manager-Coach) and he led Maroons to the Stanley Cup. He became the only Manager and/or Coach to win back-to-back Stanley Cups with two different teams.
- Player Lionel Conacher won back-to-back cups with Chicago Black Hawks 1934 and Montreal Maroons in 1935.
- Montreal Maroons did not include any playoff scores in 1935.
