Hello and welcome to the second part of this countdown as we are counting down 20 of the biggest upsets in Stanley Cup Playoff history. The 2022 postseason is already underway and there are several candidates looking to pull off their own stunners in the NHL.
Many argue that the Stanley Cup Playoffs are the best when compared to the other major North American sports leagues. The uncertainty is the main reason why. Over the years, we have seen some of the mightiest favorites go down in defeat to tremendous underdogs.
In the first part of this countdown, we went ahead and ranked #20-11. If you haven’t read that iteration, you can do so here. In the first part we tried to find playoff upsets that get overlooked when discussing the best. However, there are some usual classics that people know most about.
In the second part of this countdown, it’s guaranteed you’ll find some of the more famous upsets here. However, I’ll try to provide some more variety as far as how they are ranked. Please remember to not get raged by something you disagree with as this is a highly debatable topic. With all that being said, please enjoy.
