The Stanley Cup won the Pittsburgh Penguins after a 4-2 win in the final series against the Minnesota North Stars . When they entered the finals for the first time, the Penguins immediately celebrated their first title win.

In the first final series since 1934 in which two teams met who had never won the Stanley Cup before, Mario Lemieux took over the direction and was best scorer and MVP of the playoffs with 44 points. He scored five goals and made seven assists in the final series against the North Stars alone, who had made it to the final as the first representative of the Norris division since the league was restructured in 1981. He even missed the third game due to an injury.
