I'm noticing "how many Stanley Cups have the New York Islanders won" trend recently. I imagine this is a direct result of MSG airing Isles cup winning games while the season has been suspended.
Of course, most Isles fans will know that the team won four back-to-back Cups between 1980 and 1983. But with people clearly trying to find out how many Cups the Islanders have shows that casual fans (or non-Isles fans) are as sure as some of us about the team's previous glory days.
So, to quench the curiosity. Here's a brief history about each Stanley Cup win including the Isles regular-season record that year, the teams they beat on the way to the final, the finals themselves, and who won the Conn Smythe (Playoff MVP) that year.
