The 1961 Stanley Cup Finals was the championship series of the National Hockey League's (NHL) 1960–61 season, and the culmination of the 1961 Stanley Cup playoffs. It was contested between the Detroit Red Wings and the Chicago Black Hawks. Chicago was making its first Finals appearance since 1944, and Detroit its first appearance since 1956; both had lost to the Montreal Canadiens in those previous appearances. The Black Hawks won the best-of-seven series, four games to two, to win their third Stanley Cup, their first since 1938. However, this proved to be the last time Chicago won the Cup until 2010, a 49-year drought. This was the only title not won by the Canadiens, Red Wings or Toronto Maple Leafs during the Original Six era, and the only title won by a U.S. team between 1955 and 1970.

dbp:engravingNotes
  • * Allan Roy Edwards was engraved as Allan R. Edwards. He never played for Chicago. Roy Edwards first NHL game was during the 1967–68 season with Detroit. * Denis DeJordy first NHL game was during the 1962–63 season, when he replaced Glenn Hall. This ended Hall's record of 502 consecutive complete games. * Ronald Robert Murphy was engraved as Robert Murphy. * Tod Aloysius Martin Sloan was engraved as Martin A. Sloan. He was engraved on the cup as Tod Sloan in 1951 with Toronto. *Stan Mikita was born in Slovakia, but moved to Canada as young child. He was the first Slovakia born player to win the Stanley Cup. * Wayne Hillman and Wayne Hicks both played in the last game of the Stanley Cup Finals game 6. So they qualified to be on the Stanley Cup. It was only game they played for Chicago that season. They spend the rest of the season in the minors. * Captain Ed Litzenberger missed games 1 and 2 with an injury, so Ronald Chico Maki was dressed in his place. Maki's name was included on the Stanley Cup for dressing for 2 games in the Finals, even though he did not get any ice time, and Maki played his first regular season NHL game during the 1961–62 season.
