Eric Staal records 13th hat trick!


Recommended Posts

I thought this deserved it's own thread.

On October 8th, 2005 against the Philadelphia Flyers; Eric Staal recorded his first hat trick, on January 24, 2013 against the Buffalo Sabres; Mr. Staal recorded his 13th hat trick.

Since 2005, Eric has recorded the most hat tricks out of any player in the NHL. Congrats to Eric on that accomplishment and a job well done last night.

Note: Teemu Selanne of the Anaheim Ducks leads all active players in hat tricks with 22 and Hall of Famer; Wayne Gretzky holds the NHL record for hat tricks with 50.

    • This.  He knows where the seam is about to open, cuts, and accelerates hard. He’s slippery and tacklers always seem to be taking awkward angles to get to him. No dancing. Runs low and powerful. Almost never goes backwards for a loss. We’ve rarely had the guy who bounces off of tacklers. It’s nice seeing another one. 
    • I can't speak for others but yes I read it. The conclusions are based heavily around the use of the statistical metric DYAR created by football outsiders and used by ESPN for this article. It only includes players whose production began in 2000. But excluding HOF running backs who produced BIG in an iteration of the NFL that was not yet catered to making things much easier for offenses in order for them to prop up more recent candidates is rather absurd and seems like just playing favorites regardless of where one might fall on their opinion of the use of the metric in question. 
    • Same thing I first thought but then I saw it was against Jacksonville and took about half a second of playing to know. I was at that game.  I can't tell you my level of excitement when I saw it was Delhomme instead of Peete who came out for the 2nd half. Delhomme has and will probably always be my favorite Panther.
