Chicago 2010 vs. Boston 2011

Chicago had an amazing offense in 2010 but in 2010 an amazing offense could still win the cup. 2011 saw the game slow down to favour a larger team which could stifle speed and passing plays (aka the Canucks). Thus we shifted our focus to scoring on the PP when the ice opened up enough to neutralize the game-killing hooking, holding and interference that was suddenly legal. Then refs wouldn't award PPs to us in the playoffs and we were boned.

Basically Chicago would beat Boston under 2010 rules (as we would have) but Boston would beat the Hawks during 2011. The rules changed to let the Bruins win (then again for the Kings). Hate-able as the Blackhawks are, I've always held them in far higher esteem after their cup run than the cup winners after them.
