You need to gain enough points (2 points for wins and 1 for overtime or shootout losses) in the regular season to make the playoffs. This number depends on all the teams performances (top-8 teams in each conference make the playoffs). Once you hit the postseason you need to win 16 games in total (4 for the conference quarterfinals, 4 for conference semifinals, 4 for the conference finals, and 4 for the Stanley Cup Finals).

In order to win the Cup, a team has to play four rounds of playoff hockey, each round a best-of-seven. The winning team must win 16 games. If each round went all seven games, the winning team would have to play 28 games.

You need to win four best of 7 series.

You must win 4 games for each series and there are four series.

4X4=16 games

16 games to win and a minimum of 12 games to lose.

(You have to go to 7 games in all 4 series to have 12 losses)

There are four rounds with best of 7 series. This means that you need to win 4 games in each series to advance. The minimum amount of games is then 4 times 4, 16 games. And the maximum games needed for Stanley cup are 4 x 7 games, 28 games.
