Joey Anderson scored what has been described as a Mario Lemieux Hat Trick last night in a Toronto Marlies win over the Springfield Falcons. What is a Mario Lemieux Hat Trick? Unofficially, it’s when you can score a power play goal, shorthanded goal, and even strength goal all in the same game. And that’s exactly what Joey Anderson did.
First the shorty, probably his best goal of the night came off a great move by Brett Seney.
Next, he got the power play goal out of the way. Joey Duszak floated a shot through the slot for Anderson to tip, which he did.
