The 1986 Stanley Cup Final NHL championship series was contested by the Calgary Flames in their first Final appearance and the Montreal Canadiens in their 32nd.
The Canadiens would win the best-of-seven series 4 games to 1, to win their 23 Stanley Cup.
Brian Skrudland's game-winning goal in game 2 ended the shortest overtime in NHL playoff history, at a mere 9 seconds.
The Canadiens in 1986 were the last team to win the Stanley Cup without making at least one trade during the regular season. The only changes in the teams lineup were through their minor league team AHL Sherbrooke Canadiens.
