The 1958 Stanley Cup Finals was the championship series of the National Hockey League's (NHL) 1957–58 season, and the culmination of the 1958 Stanley Cup playoffs. It was contested between the two-time defending champion Montreal Canadiens and the Boston Bruins in a rematch of the 1957 Finals. The Canadiens, who were appearing in the Finals for the eighth consecutive year, defeated the Bruins in six games for their third straight Cup victory and tenth in the team's history. The Canadiens became the second team in NHL history to three-peat as Stanley Cup champions, joining their archrival Toronto Maple Leafs.
