How the Stanley Cup Finals timeline game works
What you're sorting here are Stanley Cup Finals, each shown as the winning club over the losing one with a short note about the series below. Your job is to put them in order of the year the Cup was won. One Final sits on the timeline at the start with its year visible. From there, each new card needs a home in one of the gaps. If you're right the year appears; if you're wrong the Final moves to its real place and you lose one of three lives.
Hockey's dynasties dominate long stretches, so several cards name the same champion and blur together. The note under each title often points to a goalie, a captain or a famous goal, and that's the best way to pin a card down. Clubs that relocated or joined the league later can help, while finals between the old established franchises are the hardest to separate.
Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
