NO only once has an 8 seed made the finals. The Edmonton Oilers in the 2005-2006 Stanley Cup Playoffs. They lost in seven games to the Carolina Hurricanes
NONE. Edmonton was 8th seed when they lost to the hurricanes in the finals ut no 8th seed ever won it The Los Angeles Kings beat the New Jersey Devils in the finals of 2012.
No,the highest seed to win was a five seed 2 times, the Devils in '96 and islanders in '80. The '12 finals result will give us either a 6th or 8th seed depending on who wins.
Best of 7 for four rounds the highest seed plays the lowest seed, the second highest seed plays the second lowest seed and so on. Sudden death overtimes for 20 minute periods. Home ice advantage goes to the higher seed who gets home ice in games 1, 2, 5, 7. The best record gets home ice advantage in the Stanley Cup Finals.
None. The only 8th place team to ever make it to the finals were the 2005-06 Edmonton Oilers but they lost in 7 games to the Carolina Hurricanes. Besides that, there have been two other teams who were last place but not in 8th place (this is before there were 8 teams in a conference). The 1948-49 Maple Leafs (22-25-13) were the last 'worst' seed to win the Stanley Cup. The 1937-38 Blackhawks (14-25-9) are the only other 'worst' seed to win the Cup. In fact by there record, they are the worst team to have won the Stanley Cup.
in 1985 nova won as an eight seed against g-town in the finals not the second round

None. the 1999 New York Knicks are the only 8th seed to ever reach the NBA finals. they eventually lost to the San Antonio Spurs. the lowest seed to ever win the NBA Finals was the 6th seeded 94-95 Houston Rockets.
no the lowest seed that has ever won an nba championship was the 7th seed Houston rockets in the 90s. Actually, that Houston rockets team was 6th, but yes they were the lowest seeded team to ever win an nba title, in the 1995 NBA Finals
