The 1930–31 Ottawa Senators season was the club's 14th season in the NHL, 46th overall. The club failed to make the playoffs, attendance continued to fall, and the team was losing money.
The 1931–32 Chicago Black Hawks season was the team's sixth season in the NHL, and they were coming off of their first ever Stanley Cup finals appearance, as they lost to the Montreal Canadiens in 5 games in the 1931 finals. The Hawks would not bring back Dick Irvin as head coach though, as they rehired Bill Tobin, who coached the Hawks at the end of the 1929–30 season. Despite finishing with an under .500 record, as the Hawks would get 47 points in 48 games, the team finished in 2nd place in the American Division, and would qualify for the playoffs for the 3rd straight season.
The 1966–67 Boston Bruins season was the Bruins' 43rd season in the NHL. Despite the debut of Bobby Orr, the Bruins finished in last place and did not qualify for the playoffs. It was the last time the team would miss the playoffs until 1997, as they would embark on a streak of 29 straight seasons in the playoffs the next season.
The 1931–32 Toronto Maple Leafs season was Toronto's 15th season in the NHL. The Maple Leafs were coming off their best regular season in team history in 1930–31, and the club set team records in wins and points, with 23 and 53 respectively, finishing in second place in the Canadian Division. Toronto then won three playoff rounds to win the Stanley Cup, first as the Maple Leafs, and third in the history of the franchise.
The 1920–21 Montreal Canadiens season was the team's 12th season and fourth as a member of the National Hockey League (NHL). The Canadiens, for the second season in a row, did not qualify for the playoffs, finishing third in the first half and second in the second half of the season.
The 1931–32 Montreal Canadiens season was the team's 23rd season. After winning two consecutive Stanley Cup championships, the Canadiens were favoured to repeat, winning the Canadian division, but lost to the New York Rangers in the semi-finals.
The 1932–33 Montreal Canadiens season was the team's 24th season. The Canadiens again qualified for the playoffs, finishing third in their division. The club again met and lost to the New York Rangers in the playoffs.
The 1931–32 New York Rangers season was the franchise's sixth season. In the regular season, the Rangers won the American Division with a 23–17–8 record.

In the Cup Finals, New York lost to the Toronto Maple Leafs, three games to none.
The 1958–59 New York Rangers season was the franchise's 33rd season. The Rangers finished with a 26–32–12 record in the regular season, and did not advance to the NHL playoffs.
The 1940–41 New York Americans season was the Americans' 16th season of play.
The 1930–31 New York Americans season was the sixth season of play. The Americans improved their record to escape last-place in the Canadian Division, but did not qualify for the playoffs.
The 1926–27 New York Americans season was the second season of the New York Americans. The club added coach Newsy Lalonde and defenceman Red Dutton. The club improved its play to finish in fourth but again did not qualify for the playoffs.
The 1927–28 New York Americans season was the American's third season of play. The team finished in last place in the Canadian Division and did not qualify for the playoffs.
The 1929–30 New York Americans season was the fifth season of play of the Americans. After making the playoffs in 1929, the team slid to last-place in the Canadian Division and did not qualify for the playoffs.
The 1929–30 Pittsburgh Pirates season was the franchise's last season in Pittsburgh. The Pirates had an extremely poor season, winning only five of 44 games to finish last in the American Division, missing the playoffs. The team moved in 1930 to Philadelphia and NHL hockey did not return to Pittsburgh until 1967.
The 1931–32 Boston Bruins season was the Bruins' eighth season in the NHL. The team finished fourth in the division, out of the playoffs.
The 1931–32 Detroit Falcons season was the sixth season of the Detroit franchise in the National Hockey League (NHL). The Falcons placed third in the American Division to qualify for the playoffs. The Falcons lost a two-game total-goals playoff to the Montreal Maroons.
The 1933–34 New York Americans season was the Americans' ninth season of play. The Americans again did not qualify for the playoffs. This was the fifth-straight season that they missed the playoffs and the eighth time out of nine seasons.
The 1934–35 New York Americans season was the Americans' 10th season of play.
The 1936–37 New York Americans season was the Americans' 12th season of play.
