Stanley Cup Final
The Stanley Cup Final was decided between the two teams with the best records of the 1988–89 NHL regular season. Captain Lanny McDonald scored the second Flames goal in game six. This turned out to be the last goal in his Hockey Hall of Fame career, as he retired during the following off-season. Doug Gilmour scored two goals in the third period, including the eventual game and Cup winner to cement the victory for the Flames.
As of 2013, this is the most recent all-Canadian final.
