NHL/WHA Playoffs

Stanley Cup Playoffs from 1927 to present, and Avco Cup Playoffs from 1973-1979.

From 1918-1926, the NHL Champion was not necessarily the Stanley Cup champion. The NHL champion proceeded to play the champs from other leagues for the Stanley Cup. By 1927, those other leagues had folded, leaving the NHL champ the de facto Stanley Cup champ.
