Nathan MacKinnon scored a goal and added an assist, and Artturi Lehkonen scored the Stanley Cup-winning for the Colorado Avalanche, who defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning by a 2-1 count in Game 6 at Amalie Arena.
Darcy Kuemper made 22 saves to backstop the Avalanche to its first title since 2001 and third NH L crown overall in franchise history which dates back to 1979, when the club, then known as the Quebec Nordiques, entered as an expansion team after beginning life in the World Hockey Association, where it won the Avco Cup in 1977.
