Stanley Cup winning players

Last updated

This is a complete alphabetic list of all players who won the Stanley Cup ice hockey trophy with years and total wins. The Stanley Cup was first awarded in 1893, and since 1926 it has been the championship trophy of the National Hockey League (NHL). The list includes all known players from each winning team from 1893 to 1923. Since 1924, all players whose names were actually engraved on the Stanley Cup are listed. The list also includes any player who qualified but whose name was not engraved on the Stanley Cup, and any player who did not qualify but who dressed in the playoffs.

Contents

The rules for determining whether a player qualified to be listed as a Stanley Cup winner have changed over time:

Starting in 1994, teams have been permitted to petition the NHL Commissioner, to be considered on a case-by-case basis, to engrave a player's name on the cup if the player was unavailable to play due to "extenuating circumstances". [1] Usually, players who spend the whole season with the winning team, but do not officially qualify, are included, especially if they missed many games injured. The league does not evaluate all players on the roster, only the ones requested by the winning team. NHL has rejected some requests for names to be added.

Since 1998, there has been a limit of 52 names per champion, counting both players and non-playing personnel. No players who qualify may be left off to include another non-playing member. The following list includes notes explaining each of the following situations:
