What happened: Brady Tkachuk became the second skater in nearly four decades to record natural hat tricks in back-to-back NHL games. The six-goal surge across two appearances places him in a three-player group in league history.

Why it matters: Scoring three uninterrupted goals in consecutive regular-season outings had not occurred in the league since November 1986. The early-season scoring burst delivers immediate top-line production following his offseason move ahead of the 2026-27 campaign.

By the numbers: Tkachuk totaled six goals across the two-game span, marking the third consecutive-game natural hat trick stretch in NHL history and the first in nearly 40 years.

What to watch: Tkachuk carries a two-game, six-goal streak into his next regular-season appearance on the 2026-27 schedule.
