Rare enough getting 3 in a row with none of the other 39 guys that dressed getting one (hey, goalies get 'em every now & then too); to have to get them all in the same stanza makes it too selective IMHO.

Does it need to be 3 in a row in the game in general or just for your team? I thought the former but you hear varying takes Both. A natural hat trick is achieved by a player whose three goals are scored consecutively, with no player on either team scoring in between. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d add that they did that in the first half of the season last year as well. But instead chastising players like previous coaches and pinning them the bench, Granato finds the learning opportunity and keeps playing the guys to seize the growth opportunity. That is a really liberating feeling for players. Tonight was a real character builder in that regard, imo. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I was trying to phrase it, the way you explain it only applies to the former of my two examples Tuch had 3 Buffalo goals in a row but not three in a row in the game Edited October 21, 2022 by Thorny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LTS Posted October 21, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Loved the game tonight. The play from the team. But.. there's a certain kind of special when you log into SS after the game and get to relive the emotion by reading the GDT. Well done SS. You did not disappoint. 7 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustache of God Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Really impressive won considering we were down a defenseman very early on. I always thought a natural hat trick was when you scored all three goals against a goalie (meaning empty netters don't make it natural) but three in a row makes more sense.

As an example, early in the year Skinner was out late when they were protecting a lead a couple of times and they got burned badly. But Skinner actually got (a little) better in his own end and he started playing more of a team game (who'd ever seen him consistently make good passes ever before?) and really played his best hockey as a Sabre & probably as an NHLer. Granato's leadership is so empowering it's amazing. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I'd figure a natural hattie would be penalty shot, shorthanded, even strength, power play. Which doesn't make sense. Not a natural Hattie as it would be 4 goals, and actually there's a 5th goal you forgot (the empty netter) and believe it or not a player has actually "hit for the cycle" once. And nobody has ever gotten the "full cycle" of all SIX classifications of goals in a single game. (The sixth is the technical or awarded goal. The puck doesn't actually enter the net but a goal is awarded anyhow typically due to a penalty taken with an empty net including the goalie leaving the net but leaving his stick in the crease.)

Would likely guarantee getting into the 90's and would just about guarantee they hit that magic 0.600. But just doubt they can take all 4 against the Otters. Hoping that's selling them short.

GASabresIUFAN Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 (edited) Just finished watching the game. Great 1st 2 periods. Mitts was excellent tonight. I think we can put the BS that Casey isn’t fast to bed. Tuch was fantastic again. Comrie was as well. Dahlin and JJP made their usual contributions. Worst play of the night belongs to the ref. He should be fined about $5 grand for kicking the puck in front of the net. That shouldn’t be allowed. Calgary was lucky we weren’t up 7-1 after 2. 3 point blank shots off the posts and crossbar. This is the type of win the helps a young team gain long-term confidence. Edited October 21, 2022 by GASabresIUFAN 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunomatic Posted October 21, 2022 Report Share Posted October 21, 2022 Great game tonight. Dahlin playing himself into great company and being recognized for it in sports commentary league wide is terrific. People are taking notice of this teams hard work in putting together a tight knit group of guys. Props to KA and meatballs. Can’t wait for Saturday night. Be there or be square. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
