The 1964β65 Chicago Black Hawks season was the Hawks' 39th season in the NHL, and the club was coming off a second-place finish in 1963β64, as Chicago won a team record 36 games and also set a club record with 84 points. The Hawks would defeat the Detroit Red Wings in 7 games in the NHL semi finals, but would fall to the Montreal Canadiens in the Stanley Cup Finals in another hard fought 7-game series. [1]
During off-season, the Black Hawks and Boston Bruins made a trade, as Chicago sent Ab McDonald, Reg Fleming, and Murray Balfour to the Bruins for Doug Mohns. The Hawks also made a few key signings, as they signed Dennis Hull, the younger brother of Bobby Hull, along with young defenseman Doug Jarrett.
Chicago started the season off slowly, as they opened the year with a record of 8β11β2 in their opening 21 games, however, the Hawks broke out of their slump, and went on a 13-game unbeaten streak. Bobby Hull was scoring in bunches, as he had 25 goals in his first 26 games. Chicago stayed hot, as they would reach a high point of 12 games over .500 when their record was 32β20β7, however, the Hawks limped into the playoffs, going 2β8β1 in their last 11 games, as they finished the year with a 34β28β8 record, earning 76 points, which was their lowest point total since 1961β62. [2]
Offensively, the Hawks were led by Stan Mikita, who won his second consecutive Art Ross Trophy, as he led the league with 87 points, as he scored 28 goals and added 59 assists. Bobby Hull, who got off to that hot start, suffered an injury in early February, as he ended up missing nine games, and finished the season with 39 goals and 71 points. Hull ended up winning the Hart Memorial Trophy, which is awarded to the MVP of the NHL. Phil Esposito, in his second season in the NHL, broke out with 23 goals and 55 points, while Kenny Wharram had another solid season, scoring 24 goals and 44 points. On the blueline, Pierre Pilote once again led the way, scoring 14 goals and 59 points, while registering a team high 162 penalty minutes, and a third consecutive Norris Trophy.
In goal, Glenn Hall had his playing time cut back, as he appeared in 41 games, winning a club high 18 games, while posting a team best 2.43 GAA, and 4 shutouts. [3] Backup goaltender Denis DeJordy played in 30 games, winning 16, while posting a 2.52 GAA, and earning 3 shutouts. [4]

The Hawks would face the Detroit Red Wings in the NHL semi-finals for the third consecutive season, as Detroit finished first in the NHL with a record of 40β23β7, earning 87 points, which was 11 more than the third place Black Hawks. The series opened up at the Detroit Olympia, and the Red Wings took control of the series, winning the opening two games by scores 4β3 and 6β3. The series shifted to Chicago Stadium for the next two games, and the Black Hawks took advantage of their home ice, winning both games by scores of 5β2 and 2β1 to even the series up. The fifth game was played in Detroit, and the Red Wings won the game 4β2, and took a 3β2 series lead. Game six was in Chicago, and again, the home team won the game, as Chicago shutout the Red Wings 4β0, setting up a seventh game at the Olympia. The Black Hawks skated into Detroit, and completed the upset, as Chicago doubled the Wings 4β2, and advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 1962.
Chicago's opponent in the 1965 Stanley Cup Finals was the Montreal Canadiens, who finished second in the league with a record of 36β23β11, earning 83 points, which was seven more than the Hawks. The Canadiens defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs in the NHL semi-finals to earn a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals. The series opened at the Montreal Forum for the opening two games, and the Canadiens quickly opened up a 2β0 series lead, with wins of 3β2 and 2β0. The series moved to Chicago for the next two games, and the Black Hawks once again took advantage of their home ice, evening the series up with 3β1 and 5β1 victories. Montreal was the site of the fifth game, and the Canadiens once again took the series lead, shutting out Chicago 6β0. The sixth game was in Chicago, and the Black Hawks stayed red hot on home ice, defeating Montreal 2β1, and finished the playoffs with a 6β0 record at home. However, the seventh and final game of the series was in Montreal, and the Black Hawks road woes continued, as the Canadiens shut out Chicago 4β0, to win the Stanley Cup. [6]

The Hawks would face the Detroit Red Wings in the NHL semi-finals for the third consecutive season, as Detroit finished first in the NHL with a record of 40β23β7, earning 87 points, which was 11 more than the third place Black Hawks. The series opened up at the Detroit Olympia, and the Red Wings took control of the series, winning the opening two games by scores 4β3 and 6β3. The series shifted to Chicago Stadium for the next two games, and the Black Hawks took advantage of their home ice, winning both games by scores of 5β2 and 2β1 to even the series up. The fifth game was played in Detroit, and the Red Wings won the game 4β2, and took a 3β2 series lead. Game six was in Chicago, and again, the home team won the game, as Chicago shutout the Red Wings 4β0, setting up a seventh game at the Olympia. The Black Hawks skated into Detroit, and completed the upset, as Chicago doubled the Wings 4β2, and advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 1962.
Chicago's opponent in the 1965 Stanley Cup Finals was the Montreal Canadiens, who finished second in the league with a record of 36β23β11, earning 83 points, which was seven more than the Hawks. The Canadiens defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs in the NHL semi-finals to earn a spot in the Stanley Cup Finals. The series opened at the Montreal Forum for the opening two games, and the Canadiens quickly opened up a 2β0 series lead, with wins of 3β2 and 2β0. The series moved to Chicago for the next two games, and the Black Hawks once again took advantage of their home ice, evening the series up with 3β1 and 5β1 victories. Montreal was the site of the fifth game, and the Canadiens once again took the series lead, shutting out Chicago 6β0. The sixth game was in Chicago, and the Black Hawks stayed red hot on home ice, defeating Montreal 2β1, and finished the playoffs with a 6β0 record at home. However, the seventh and final game of the series was in Montreal, and the Black Hawks road woes continued, as the Canadiens shut out Chicago 4β0, to win the Stanley Cup. [6]
