* In 2005 the Stanley Cup will not be awarded because the players and owners, the NHL and NHLPA, Bob Goodenow and Gary Bettman, could not come to an agreement when splitting an estimated $2.1 billion in revenue. ** The first Stanley Cup to go unawarded in 112 years was a somber reaction to the 1919 influenza pandemic that killed over 20 million people worldwide. The series halted because of this epidemic which killed players including the death of Joe Hall of Montreal Canadiens. Five games had been completed when the series was stopped, each team having won two and tied one. Technically, the Seattle Metropolitans of the Pacific Coast Hockey Association could have taken the cup after most of the Montreal Canadiens team of the National Hockey League fell ill. Seattle declined to take the championship under those circumstances. The results are shown below:
Mar. 19, at Seattle - Seattle 7, Montreal 0; Mar. 22, at Seattle - Montreal 4, Seattle 2;	Mar. 24, at Seattle - Seattle 7, Montreal 2; Mar. 26, at Seattle - Montreal 0, Seattle 0;	Mar. 30, at Seattle - Montreal 4, Seattle 3.
