The first team to actually win the Stanley Cup was the Montreal HC in 1893. However, it didn't become the NHL trophy until 1926, when the Ottawa Senators won it. It's perhaps noteworthy that this is a different franchise than the Ottawa Senators today. The original club folded in 1934; in 1992, Ottawa received a new team, named the Senators in honor of the original franchise.
