The team then had to defend its champion-title both through league championships and challenge games organised by the Stanley Cup trustees.

The series was pre-arranged between the two leagues before the season after post-season exhibitions held in their previous seasons. The inaugural series was to be held in the city of the NHA champion, and alternate annually following the series. </p><p>After the series got under way, there was some concern that the series would not produce an "official" Stanley Cup champion. The Victoria club had not formally applied to the Stanley Cup trustees to challenge for the Cup.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEColeman1964–1969262_7-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEColeman1964–1969262-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> A letter arrived from the Stanley Cup trustees on March 17, that the trustees would not let the Stanley Cup travel west, because they did not consider Victoria a proper challenger, as they had not verified themselves with the trustees.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> However, on March 18, trustee William Foran stated that it was a misunderstanding.

The series alternated between a rink of the NHA and later the NHL and a rink of the PCHA and later the WCHL/WHL. It was not until the demise of the WHL, that the final series alternated games between the two finalists' home ice. </p><p>The series allowed ties until 1928. As the two and later three leagues differed, the series would alternate using each league's rules. The PCHA continued to use seven-man team play, and games would alternate with six and seven-man games. </p><p>After the NHL became the last remaining league to compete for the Cup, the trophy was then awarded to the winner of the NHL's championship playoff round. This first took place in 1927 between the <a href="/wiki/Boston_Bruins" title="Boston Bruins">Boston Bruins</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Ottawa_Senators_(original)" title="Ottawa Senators (original)">Ottawa Senators</a>, which was planned to be a best-of-three series, although the series allowed ties. The series ended after four games, when the Senators defeated the Bruins in the fourth game. </p><p>The NHL has changed its playoff format several times since 1927, and thus the final round has not always pitted conference or division playoff champions against each other. In the playoff format used from 1929 to 1938, the two teams with identical division ranking would face each other (i.e. the first place teams played each other, the second place teams play each other, and likewise for the third place teams). The winner of the first place series would automatically advance to the final round. The winner of the second and third place series would then play each other, with the winner of that series earning the other berth to the championship round. </p><p>During the <a href="/wiki/Original_Six" title="Original Six">Original Six</a> era, the top four teams made the playoffs, with the first and third place teams battling in one semifinal series, while the second and fourth place teams battled in the other. And from <a href="/wiki/1974%E2%80%9375_NHL_season" title="1974–75 NHL season">1975</a> to <a href="/wiki/1981_Stanley_Cup_playoffs" title="1981 Stanley Cup playoffs">1981</a>, all the playoff teams were seeded regardless of division or conference.
