In 2012, the Los Angeles Kings made NHL history when they became the first No. 8 seed to win the Stanley Cup. They're still the only eighth-seeded team to win it, as there's been no other underdog to make a similar run during the playoffs since then.
This year, though, there's the potential for more history. With 24 teams playing either round-robin seeding games (top four teams in each conference) or a best-of-five qualifying-round series, there are some that have been seeded Nos. 9-12 in each conference, which means it's possible the Kings will no longer be the lowest-seeded team to win the Stanley Cup.
