Game two was moved from New York to Boston due to a scheduling conflict at Madison Square Garden. It remains the only neutral site Stanley Cup Finals game to be played in the United States and the first neutral site Stanley Cup Finals game contested by two NHL teams.
New York defeated the defending champion Canadiens in a best-of-five 3–1 to advance to the finals. The Leafs had to play two total-goals series; 6–2 against 1931 finalists Chicago, and 4–3 against the Maroons.
New York would have to play game two in Boston, due to the circus having been booked into Madison Square Garden.
Toronto's 'Kid Line' of Jackson, Conacher and Primeau, in their first Finals, combined for eight goals.
Toronto's coach Dick Irvin made his second straight Finals appearance, having coached for Chicago in 1931.
