How does a team win the Stanley cup?

Whoever has the longest losing streak out of the 30 teams in the NHL 16 teams enter the Stanley Cup playoffs based on the points they got during the 82 games during the regular season.8 teams are from the western conference and 8 are from the eastern conference.The first round of the playoffs, or Conference Quarterfinals, consists of four match-ups in each conference, based on the seedings (# 1 vs. # 8, # 2 vs. # 7, # 3 vs. # 6, and # 4 vs. # 5). In the second round, or Conference Semifinals, the top remaining conference seed plays against the lowest remaining seed, and the other two remaining conference teams pair off In the third round, the Conference Finals, the two remaining teams in each conference play each other, with the conference champions proceeding to the Stanley Cup Finals.
