THE OVERALL STANDINGS - The Only Count That Matters

Here are the current totals of Stanley Cup wins per franchise since the trophy was first awarded in the 1892-92 season.

In 113 years, 32 different teams clubs have won the trophy. You may notice that the overall totals do not quite add up. The reason for this, is that in the trophy's inaugural years, it was a challange cup. Once a team had won it, they often had to defend it. Most did, but upon occasion, it resulted in two teams winning it in the same season.

Below the first 32 teams listing is a total of cups won per city in the trophy's history.
