The 1936 Stanley Cup Finals was contested by the Detroit Red Wings and the Toronto Maple Leafs. This was Detroit's second appearance in the Finals and Toronto's sixth. Detroit would win the series 3–1 to win their first Stanley Cup. This marked the sixth consecutive season of a different winner, and the eighth of the first ten teams (excluding the New York Americans and the Pittsburgh Pirates/Philadelphia Quakers, who never won the Cup) to win in the ten seasons since the Stanley Cup became exclusive to the NHL.
