Yes, you need to win it to get to the finals but if the NHL did away with the conference finals trophies I don't think the players would be disappointed.
Because it's not the trophy that players dream about winning. It's just a symbol that you made it to the finals which ends up just being a painful reminder of how close you were if you end up losing in the finals.
