The 1990 Stanley Cup playoffs for the National Hockey League (NHL) championship began on April 5, 1990, following the 1989–90 regular season. The sixteen teams that qualified, from the top four teams of the four divisions, played best-of-seven series. The Conference Champions played a best-of-seven series for the Stanley Cup. This was the last time that the Detroit Red Wings missed the playoffs until 2017. They would make the playoffs for 25 consecutive seasons from 1991 to 2016, excluding 2005, when the season was cancelled. Since entering the NHL as expansion teams in the 1967–68 NHL season this was the first and only time until 2023 that both the Philadelphia Flyers and Pittsburgh Penguins missed the playoffs in the same season. The playoffs concluded on May 24 with the Edmonton Oilers winning the Stanley Cup, defeating the Boston Bruins in the final series four games to one. Edmonton goaltender Bill Ranford was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy as Most Valuable Player of the playoffs. Playoff seeds The top four teams in each division qualified for the playoffs, as follows: Prince of Wales Conference Adams Division Boston Bruins, Adams Division champions, Prince of Wales Conference regular season champions, Presidents' Trophy winners – 101 points Buffalo Sabres – 98 points Montreal Canadiens – 93 points Hartford Whalers – 85 points Patrick Division New York Rangers, Patrick Division champions – 85 points New Jersey Devils – 83 points Washington Capitals – 78 points New York Islanders – 73 points Clarence Campbell Conference Norris Division Chicago Blackhawks, Norris Division champions – 88 points St. Louis Blues – 83 points Toronto Maple Leafs – 80 points Minnesota North Stars – 76 points Smythe Division Calgary Flames, Smythe Division champions, Clarence Campbell Conference regular season champions – 99 points Edmonton Oilers – 90 points Winnipeg Jets – 85 points Los Angeles Kings – 75 points Playoff bracket In the division semifinals, the fourth seeded team in each division played against the division winner from their division. The other series matched the second and third place teams from the divisions. The two winning teams from each division's semifinals then met in the division finals. The two division winners of each conference then played in the conference finals. The two conference winners then advanced to the Stanley Cup Final. In each round, teams competed in a best-of-seven series following a 2–2–1–1–1 format (scores in the bracket indicate the number of games won in each best-of-seven series). Home ice advantage was awarded to the team that had the better regular season record, and played at home for games one and two (and games five and seven, if necessary); the other team then played at home for games three and four (and game six, if necessary). main Bracket Division semifinals Division finals Conference finals Stanley Cup Final Prince of Wales Conference Clarence Campbell Conference A1 Boston 4 A4 Hartford 3 A2 Buffalo 2 A3 Montreal 4 P1 NY Rangers 4 P4 NY Islanders 1 P2 New Jersey 2 P3 Washington 4 N1 Chicago 4 N4 Minnesota 3 N2 St. Louis 4 N3 Toronto 1 S1 Calgary 2 S4 Los Angeles 4 S2 Edmonton 4 S3 Winnipeg 3 A1 Boston 4 A3 Montreal 1 P1 NY Rangers 1 P3 Washington 4 N1 Chicago 4 N2 St. Louis 3 S4 Los Angeles 0 S2 Edmonton 4 A1 Boston 4 P3 Washington 0 N1 Chicago 2 S2 Edmonton 4 A1 Boston 1 S2 Edmonton 4 Division semifinals Prince of Wales Conference (A1) Boston Bruins vs. (A4) Hartford Whalers This was the first playoff series between these two teams.
