1932 Stanley Cup Finals

The 1932 Stanley Cup Finals were held from April 5 to April 9, in a best-of-five series between the New York Rangers and the Toronto Maple Leafs. Toronto would win the series in three straight to win their first Stanley Cup.[1]

Background

New York defeated the defending champion Canadiens in a best-of-five 3-1 to advance to the finals. The Leafs had to play two total-goals series; 6-2 against 1931 finalists Chicago, and 4-3 against the Maroons.

The Series

New York would have to play game two in Boston, due to the circus having been booked into Madison Square Garden.

Toronto's 'Kid Line' of Jackson, Conacher and Primeau, in their first Finals, combined for eight goals.

Toronto's coach Dick Irvin made his second straight Finals appearance, having coached for Chicago in 1931.
