When was the last time that all of the original six teams were in the playoffs in the same year? I know it's been a while....

They came close to matching the 95-96 mark in 01-02, but the Rangers failed to join the other 5 original sixers at the dance.
Since the 95-96 season, the fewest number of original six squads to qualify for the playoffs was 2 (happened 3 times), but I couldn't find a year where only 1 of the six played for the cup.
