Map of the Original Six cities
The Original Six (French: six équipes originales) are the teams that composed the National Hockey League (NHL) between 1942 and 1967. The six teams are the Boston Bruins, Chicago Black Hawks, Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers, and Toronto Maple Leafs. After serving as the league's only teams for 25 seasons, they were joined by six new franchises in the 1967 NHL expansion.
The Six are not the original teams of the NHL. The Canadiens and Maple Leafs are the two members of this group that are charter members of the NHL.[1] However, the Original Six are considered a set for having joined the league by 1926, and thus being the NHL's oldest active franchises.
The Original Six have the most combined Stanley Cup titles among NHL franchises; the Canadiens hold the most wins at 24. The Maple Leafs, who won the last Stanley Cup of the Original Six era, are the only Original Six franchise to have not returned to the Stanley Cup Finals since the 1967 expansion.
