This was also the first final since 1982 not to feature either of the two Alberta-based teams, the Calgary Flames or the Edmonton Oilers, and the first since 1981 not contested by a team from Western Canada, or Canada overall. The Finals and the NHL season ended on May 25, marking the last time to date that the Stanley Cup playoffs have not extended into the month of June. (en)
  • La finale della Stanley Cup 1991 è stata una serie al meglio delle sette gare che ha determinato il campione della National Hockey League per la stagione 1990-91. Al termine dei playoff i Pittsburgh Penguins, campioni della Prince of Wales Conference, si sfidarono contro i Minnesota North Stars, campioni nella Clarence S. Campbell Conference. I Penguins nella serie finale di Stanley Cup usufruirono del fattore campo in virtù del maggior numero di punti ottenuti nella stagione regolare, 88 punti contro i 68 dei North Stars. La serie iniziò il 15 maggio e finì il 25 maggio con la conquista da parte dei Penguins della Stanley Cup per 4 a 2. Questa fu la prima finale di Stanley Cup disputata da due franchigie nate dopo l'espansione della lega nel 1967, al termine dell'era delle Original Six. Mentre per Minnesota fu la seconda apparizione alle finali, per i Penguins si trattò dell'esordio assoluto. Per la prima volta dal 1983 il titolo fu conquistato da una formazione statunitense, mentre l'ultima finale tutta americana risaliva al 1981, quando i North Stars furono sconfitti dai New York Islanders. Per la prima volta dal 1982 non giunsero in finale le due squadre dell'Alberta, i Calgary Flames e gli Edmonton Oilers. Al termine della serie l'attaccante canadese Mario Lemieux fu premiato con il Conn Smythe Trophy, trofeo assegnato al miglior giocatore dei playoff. (it)

  • *Jay Caufield played only 23 games. His name was engraved on the Stanley Cup because he spent the whole season with Pittsburgh. *Barry Pederson did not play a single game in the 1991 playoffs, but he qualified to get his name on the Stanley Cup and get a Stanley Cup ring because he played 46 games during the season. *Pierre McGuire, Les Binkley, John Gill, Charlie Hodge, Ralph Cox were with the team as scouts in 1990–91, but names were not included on the Stanley Cup that year. All five of these scouts were awarded Stanley Cup rings. *Randy Gilhen was the first German-born player to win the Stanley Cup, but grew up in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada *Jim Paek was the first Korean-born hockey player to both play in the NHL, and have his name engraved on the Stanley Cup. Included on the team picture, but left off the Stanley Cup * #5 Gord Dineen , #20 Jamie Leach , #18 Ken Priestlay , did not qualify to be included on the Stanley Cup for playing rest of the season in minors. * #27 Gilbert Delorme missed the whole season due to a car accident in the offseason. * #30 Bruce Racine was called up from the minors to serve as back-up to Frank Pietrangelo. He was dressed for the last two games of round one, and first two games of round two. Both Wendell Young , and Tom Barrasso were unable to play. Racine name was left off the Stanley Cup, because he had not played in the NHL - in fact, Racine has never played for Pittsburgh. His only NHL experience came in 1995-96 for the St. Louis Blues. * Pittsburgh filled the last spot on the bottom ring. The larger rings were filled a year early then planned.
