Due to the 2012–13 NHL lockout the 2013 Cup Finals began on June 12. [1] The last game was June 24. This tied the 1995, also impacted by a lockout, for the latest in June that the Stanley Cup was awarded.

In Game six, the Blackhawks were losing 2-1 with 76 seconds left in the third period. In 17 seconds, Bryan Bickell and then Dave Bolland scored to take the lead and win the series.[2]
