The playoffs for the Stanley Cup of 2014 began on April 16, 2014 and ended on June 13, 2014 with the Los Angeles Kings 4-1 victory over the New York Rangers . The Kings won their second Stanley Cup after 2012 and not only provided Justin Williams, the most valuable player , but also had the top scorer of the playoffs in their ranks in Anže Kopitar .

For the first time since 1973, the Canadiens de Montréal, only a single Canadian team qualified for the post-season . The Detroit Red Wings, on the other hand, extended the longest run of consecutive playoff appearances of any active franchise to 23, while the Columbus Blue Jackets achieved their first two playoff wins ever. In addition, for the first time since 1979 there were three representatives of the Original Six in the conference finals.

A new record was set in the playoffs, so the teams managed ten times in the first round to convert a deficit of more than one goal into a win. In comparison, this happened only eight times in all four competition rounds the year before. Also in the first round, the Los Angeles Kings managed to turn a 3-0 deficit in the series against the San Jose Sharks into a 4-3 win, which was only the fourth time in playoff history. After the Kings also had to go over seven games in the Conference semifinals and finals, they became the first team to reach the Stanley Cup final, having previously played seven games in all three rounds. Furthermore, the 4: 1 in the final marked the 93rd game of these playoffs, which also beat the previous record of 92 games from 1991 .

mode

After the three teams with the highest points and the two wild card teams of the respective conference have qualified from each division, the playoffs , which are held in the knockout system , start . In the first round, the division winners meet the wild card teams of the respective conference, whereby the division winner with the most points meets the worse of the two wild card teams. The remaining pairings of the Conference quarter-finals will be played within the division among the teams that placed second and third.

Each conference then plays its winner in the conference quarter-finals, conference semifinals and conference finals, who then compete in the final for the Stanley Cup . All series in each round are played in best-of-seven mode, which means that a team needs four wins to reach the next round. The higher seeded team has home rights in the first two games, the next two the opposing team. If no winner has emerged from the round by then, home rights will change from game to game. The higher-ranked team has a home advantage in games 1, 2, 5 and 7, i.e. four of the maximum seven games. The winner of the Eastern Conference will receive the Prince of Wales Trophy and the winner of the Western Conference will receive the Clarence S. Campbell Bowl .

For games that remain tied after the regular playing time of 60 minutes, overtime follows , which, in contrast to the regular season, is played with five field players. In addition, it ends with the first goal ( Sudden Death ) and not, as usual in the regular season, with a shootout .
