The Florida Panthers beat the Seattle Kraken 8-3 on Saturday at Amerant Bank Arena, with Carter Verhaeghe and Sam Bennett each scoring natural hat tricks. Verhaeghe’s and Bennett’s three-goal performances are the latest in a streak that sets a league record.
Across the Panthers’ past three games, they become the first NHL team to record natural hat tricks in consecutive contests. The streak is traced to Brady Tkachuk’s natural hat trick in earlier wins over Columbus on Tuesday and Vancouver on Thursday, followed by Verhaeghe and Bennett’s hat tricks against Seattle. Multiple reports frame the win as an offensive showcase, highlighting Florida’s eight-goal output and its continued momentum during the stretch.
