The Maple Leafs defeated the Canadiens in six games to win their thirteenth and most recent Stanley Cup championship.
To date, this is Toronto's last appearance in the Stanley Cup Finals and they have the longest-active championship drought in the NHL.
This was the last Stanley Cup before the 1967 expansion which meant there were only two rounds and three series in total were played in the playoffs.
Jim Pappin scored his seventh goal of the playoffs and Sawchuk stopped 41 shots helping Toronto win the Cup.
Captain George Armstrong scored the 3–1 empty-net insurance goal to put game six out of reach.
