Canadiens' Max Pacioretty: Sends hats raining down

Pacioretty scored a goal in each period for his sixth career hat trick in Tuesday's win over Buffalo.

Analysis:

All of a sudden, Pacioretty's rocketed himself into the NHL's top 10 goal scorers, as he now has 24 in 51 games -- good for membership in the four-way second-place tie behind Sidney Crosby's league-leading 28. The veteran winger is well on his way to netting 30-plus goals and 60-plus points for the fifth consecutive season (excluding the lockout-shortened year).
