Question: What team won the Stanley Cup Final in the first season that Matthew Martin led the league in hits delivered?
Context: The 1917 Stanley Cup Finals was contested by the Pacific Coast Hockey Association (PCHA) champion Seattle Metropolitans and the National Hockey Association (NHA) and Stanley Cup defending champion Montreal Canadiens.  Seattle defeated Montreal three games to one in a best-of-five game series to become the first United States-based team to win the Cup.  It was also the first Stanley Cup Final to be played in the United States, as all games were played in Seattle, and the last Stanley Cup final to not feature a National Hockey League team. Matthew Martin (born May 8, 1989) is a Canadian professional ice hockey winger who currently plays for the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League (NHL).  Martin previously played with the New York Islanders is known for his strong checking abilities, having led the league in hits delivered in every season since 2011; the only year Martin did not finish first was his rookie season of 2010–11, where he finished fourth league wide in recorded hits.  Martin also holds the NHL record for most hits in a season.  In the NHL, Martin has been described as both an enforcer and a grinder. The 2001 Stanley Cup Finals was the championship series of the National Hockey League's (NHL) 2000–01 season, and the culmination of the 2001 Stanley Cup playoffs.  It was contested between the Eastern Conference champion and defending Stanley Cup champion New Jersey Devils and the Western Conference champion and Presidents' Trophy winning Colorado Avalanche.  It was Colorado's second appearance in the Final, and the first since the team won the Cup in 1996.  It was New Jersey's third appearance in the Final and second straight appearance after winning the Cup in the 2000 Final.  Colorado defeated New Jersey in seven games to win their second Stanley Cup in franchise history.  Colorado's Patrick Roy would win the Conn Smythe Trophy as the MVP of the 2001 Playoffs.  This was the first Stanley Cup Final since that would be decided in the maximum seven games.  This was also the first and, as of 2017, most recent Finals since that the number one seeds in each conference met. The 1999 Stanley Cup Finals was the championship series of the National Hockey League's (NHL) 1998–1999 season, and the culmination of the 1999 Stanley Cup playoffs.  It was contested by the Eastern Conference champion Buffalo Sabres and the Western Conference champion Dallas Stars.  It was the 106th year of the Stanley Cup being contested.  The Sabres were led by captain Michael Peca, coach Lindy Ruff and goalie Dominik Hasek.  The Stars were led by captain Derian Hatcher, coach Ken Hitchcock and goalie Ed Belfour.  It was the Sabres' second Stanley Cup Final appearance, the first being a loss to Philadelphia in 1975.  It was the third appearance for the Stars' franchise, and their first since moving to Dallas from Minnesota in 1993.  Minnesota (known at the time as the North Stars) lost in the Final to the NY Islanders in 1981 and to Pittsburgh in 1991.  The Stars defeated the Sabres four games to two to win their first Stanley Cup, becoming the eighth post-1967 expansion team to earn a championship, and the first Southern team to win the Cup.  This was the first time since 1994 that the Stanley Cup Finals did not end in a sweep. The 1967 Stanley Cup Finals was a best-of-seven series played between the Montreal Canadiens and the Toronto Maple Leafs.  The Maple Leafs ended up winning the series, four games to two.  In doing this, they won their thirteenth Stanley Cup.  To date, this is Toronto's most recent Stanley Cup championship, most recent appearance in the championship final, and is tied for the longest-active championship drought in the NHL with the St. Louis Blues (who have never won since joining the NHL in 1967) at 49 seasons.  The 1967 Stanley Cup Final was also the last Stanley Cup Final in the Original Six Era. The 2011–12 Vancouver Canucks season was the 42nd season in the modern Canucks history.  The Vancouver Canucks were the defending Western Conference champions and three time defending Northwest Division champions.  The Canucks opened the regular season against the Pittsburgh Penguins at home on October 6.  Their final regular season game was held at Rogers Arena against the Edmonton Oilers on April 7, 2012.  The Canucks entered the season expected to again contend for their first ever Stanley Cup.  The Canucks struggled out of the gate, hovering around .500 until roughly the 20 game mark due to weak defensive play and a slow start from Roberto Luongo.  The Canucks then rebounded, playing their best hockey of the season from the end of November until the beginning of January.  The team dominated much like they did the season prior during this stretch, as goals came in bunches and the offense was backed up by strong goaltending from the tandem of Luongo and Cory Schneider.  The peak of the Canucks' season came on January 7, 2012, in a game against the Boston Bruins, a 2011 Stanley Cup Final rematch.  The Canucks prevailed 4–3 in a hard-fought playoff atmosphere, and they seemed to state to the hockey world that they would be heard from again come playoff time.  The winning ways continued for the rest of the season, but the team did not play with the same heart they played with that January afternoon again.  The Canucks often played down to their competition, barely beating some of the weakest teams in the league as the offense seemed to disappear.  The Canucks pulled a shocking deal at the trade deadline, trading blue-chip prospect Cody Hodgson to the Buffalo Sabres for a skilled, but unproven prospect Zack Kassian.  While Kassian should eventually emerge as a solid NHLer, this deal was probably pulled too soon as the offensive mojo disappeared but the team was lucky to have outstanding goaltending that led them to their second consecutive Presidents' Trophy on the final day of the regular season when they defeated the Edmonton Oilers.  Despite entering the playoffs as the top seed, the Canucks were eliminated in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs in five games by the Los Angeles Kings. Dan O'Rourke (born August 31, 1972 in Calgary) is an NHL referee, who wears uniform number 9.  He was one of the selected referees who officiated during the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs.  Dan was also selected to officiate in the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals alongside Stephen Walkom, Dan O'Halloran and Kelly Sutherland.  He was again picked to referee the 2012 Stanley Cup Final, and most recently the 2016 Stanley Cup Final. The 1998 Stanley Cup Finals was the championship series of the National Hockey League's (NHL) 1997–1998 season, and the culmination of the 1998 Stanley Cup playoffs.  It was contested by the Western Conference champion and defending Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings and the Eastern Conference champion Washington Capitals.  It was the 105th year of the Stanley Cup being contested.  The series was the Capitals' first appearance in a Stanley Cup Final since the franchise's inception in 1974.  The Red Wings won the series for the second year in a row, four games to none.  It was the Wings' ninth Stanley Cup, and the most recent time when a Finals concluded with a sweep (as of 2017).  This was also the last time until that a Stanley Cup Finals ended after an NBA Finals in the same season had concluded.  Detroit coach Scotty Bowman won his eighth Stanley Cup in that capacity (having previously done so with the Montreal Canadiens in , , , , and , the Pittsburgh Penguins in , and the Wings the previous year), tying him with former Canadiens coach Toe Blake for the record of most Cups won by a coach (which he would break when he helped the Red Wings win the 2002 Cup). The 1984 Stanley Cup Final was held between the Edmonton Oilers and the then-defending champion New York Islanders.  The Islanders had swept the Oilers in four straight games to win the Cup.  In 1984, the Islanders were seeking their fifth consecutive Stanley Cup championship, but the upstart Oilers would win the best-of-seven series four games to one to win their first Stanley Cup, becoming the third post-1967 expansion team and first former World Hockey Association team to win the Cup, and also the first team based west of Chicago to win the Cup since the WCHL's Victoria Cougars became the last non-NHL team to win it in .  It was also the fifth straight Finals of teams that joined the NHL in 1967 or later and a rematch of the 1983 Finals—a Stanley Cup Finals rematch would not happen again until the Finals.  s of 2017 , the Islanders' four consecutive Cup wins (, , , 1983) and their appearance in the 1984 Cup Finals is an NHL record of 19 consecutive playoff series wins that currently stands unbroken.  This would be the second of eight consecutive Finals contested by a team from Alberta (the Oilers appeared in six, the Calgary Flames in two), and the first of five consecutive Finals to end with the Cup presentation on Alberta ice (the Oilers won four times, the Montreal Canadiens one). The 2011–12 NHL season was the 95th season of operation (94th season of play) of the National Hockey League (NHL).  The Los Angeles Kings defeated the New Jersey Devils in the Stanley Cup Final four games to two to win the team's first Stanley Cup (in their second Stanley Cup final; they had lost to Montreal Canadiens in the 1993 Finals).
Answer: Los Angeles Kings
