The 1935 Stanley Cup Final NHL championship series was contested by the Montreal Maroons and the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Maroons would win the series 3–0 to win their second and final Stanley Cup. The Maroons are the last defunct team to ever win the Cup, as the team would disband 3 years later.
Toronto defeated the Boston Bruins in a best-of-five 3–1 to advance to the final.
The Maroons had to play a total-goals series; 1–0 against Chicago Black Hawks, and win a second two game total-goals series 5–4 against the New York Rangers.
Maroons manager-coach Tommy Gorman became the only coach to win successive Stanley Cup titles with two different teams after winning with the Chicago Black Hawks in the 1934 Final.
It was the first all-Canadian final since the Maroons defeated Victoria in 1926. Maroons goaltender Alex Connell allowed just four goals in the three games.
