This template generates a tournament bracket for the NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs format that was first used for the 2014 Stanley Cup playoffs. The top 3 teams from each division will qualify for the playoffs, with the top 2 remaining teams in each conference qualifying as wild cards. Note the following legend:

  • A – Atlantic Division
  • M – Metropolitan Division
  • C – Central Division
  • P – Pacific Division
  • WC – Wild Card

Adding the parameter italics=1 will cause a footnote reading, "Teams in italics have home-ice advantage." to display below the bracket.

This template is also used as a backend for the Stanley Cup Playoff format used from 1982 to 1993.

See this template's talk page for information on how to use this template.
