Montreal Canadiens Playoff Tickets

In their long history, the Canadiens have had more playoff success than just about any other NHL team. Their Stanley Cup championships date all the way back to 1916, and they won the Stanley Cup at least one time in every decade from 1910 to 1990.

The Canadiens became a true dynasty (for the first time) during the Original Six era in the 1950s and 60s. They won their first Stanley Cup of the decade in 1953 and then won the Stanley Cup at the end of every season from 1956 to 1960. The team’s five consecutive Stanley Cups during this dynasty is an NHL record that’s hard to imagine ever being broken in a league with 30+ teams. That Canadiens dynasty featured players like Maurice “Rocket” Richard, Toe Blake, Jacques Plante, and Bernie “Boom Boom” Geoffrion (the Canadiens probably also have the record for the best hockey nicknames).

The NHL expanded in 1967, and the Canadiens showed that their playoff success could last for multiple eras. They won the first expansion-era Stanley Cup in 1968, sweeping the St. Louis Blues in the Stanley Cup Final. Then the team dominated the 1970s—they won the Stanley Cup six times throughout the decade, including four consecutive championships between 1976 and 1979. During their 1970s dynasty, the Canadiens were coached by Scotty Bowman. Bowman won the first five Stanley Cups of his legendary coaching career with Montreal. He finished his coaching career with nine Stanley Cup wins and is the most successful coach in NHL history.

In 1993, the Canadiens won the Stanley Cup over the Los Angeles Kings. This meant that the team had won the Stanley Cup in every decade it was awarded in the 20th century. After the Canadiens won the Cup in ‘93, no other Canadian team won the Stanley Cup for over 25 years.
