The Original Six era has been criticized for having a playoff system that was too easy, since the top four teams in the regular season advanced to the playoffs. At least, the playoff system was too easy for the top three teams in the league, i.e. Montreal, Toronto, and Detroit. The standings were very static. Montreal only missed the playoffs once between 1943 and 1967 (in 1948) while Toronto missed the post-season four times and Detroit missed three times, leaving the other three teams to compete for the one remaining berth. Montreal won ten of the 25 Stanley Cups awarded during the Original Six era; Toronto won nine, and Detroit won five. Chicago won only one Stanley Cup during this era, in 1961, while Boston and New York won no Cups.
