which Flyers player scored two hat tricks in the same game?

Answer 1

Never happened. No Flyer has ever scored 6 goals in the same game.

Answer 2

No player has ever recorded more than 4 goals in a single game for the Flyers, 16 players have done that.

Lupol and Umberger notched hat tricks in the same game last week. The last time two Flyers players combined to do that was in the mid-80's by Brian Propp and Ilka Sinisalo.

LITY: Oh-uh. Propp claimed on the air during the game that he and Sinisalo were the last to accomplish that feat. Was he tooting his own horn a little too loudly or did he just forget about Poulin/Kerr?

Answer 3

I don't know if the SAME player has ever scored two hat tricks in one game. But RJ Umberger and Joffrey Lupul each scored a hat trick Tuesday against the Pens. And Lupul has another one tonight :)

Answer 4

R.J. Umberger and Joffrey Lupul did it last weekend

Dave Poulin and Tim Kerr did it on December 18, 1986 against the New York Islanders.

Lubers............I'm thinking he forgot about Kerr and Poulin, but will he give back the 4 assists he got on their goals? ;)

Propp and Sinisalo did their deed on October 18, 1984 against the Vancouver Canucks

Answer 5

Well, for a starter, it came from Cricket - not 'hockey', whether what the US calls 'field hockey' (and the other 90%+ of the world just 'hockey') or (ice)'hockey'. And it wasn't goals that were the issue when it was coined. It is difficult in any game to get three succeeding batsmen or batters out, one after the other, with no runs or points scored by them. When this happened in cricket, 3 'wickets' taken, one after the other, for no runs, the captain of the team losing the wickets would remove his cap (they did play in a top 'hat' early on in formal cricket) and take it round his team - a "penalty" collection, in a sense. [Might have been the captain of the bowler's team, I'm not sure.] Whatever was collected was the successful bowler's to keep - or use in the local pub for 'shouts' after the game finished (the more expected result!). Slowly the expression moved to other sports - but originally, I believe, still limited to where one player got both his team's next two scores (whatever their point value) after scoring once. Finally we have reached general use, where it simply means a player scores three times in a game - no matter whether the other side has scored in between or any other of his/her team-mates has also scored in between.
