Athletistic/Hockey. Carolina forward Andrei Svechnikov played brilliantly in the NHL regular season game with Montreal. The striker scored three goals and his team won with a score of 5:3.

This hat-trick became Svechnikov’s third in the NHL.

The Russian scored goals for all tastes: first, Andrei played on the rebound after a shot by Brent Burns, then he literally crossed goalkeeper Caden Primeau with a powerful shot from the right throw-in circle, and ended the evening with a perfect shot. into the opponent’s empty net while in his own zone.

As a result, Svechnikov was recognized as the first star of the day.

Here’s how Carolina fans rated Svechnikov’s play on social media:

@_PuckWatching:

– Svec is starting to ramp up his scoring machine: 5 goals and 8 points in the last 5 matches.

@roberson_alec:

– Svechnikov’s goals are what Carolina really needs.

@aschnitt53:

– I am extremely happy for Svechnikov: the guy had to go through a lot last season, and this hat-trick should make him happy.

@abbykaddabbs10:

– Svechnikov’s three goals made me as happy as I haven’t been since February last year.

@xCanes23x:

– Svechnikov returns to his previous level! I screamed so hard after his third goal that I scared the dog and everyone in the house.

@FiredUpFantasy:

– Svechnikov has had a very low shooting percentage this season, so it’s great to see him start scoring regularly.

@peroxwhyLUSH:

– Overall, the Hurricanes didn’t have their best game, but Svechnikov is starting to heat up.

@DonnellySports:

“It’s crazy how good Carolina can be when its best forward plays up to his status.” The goals in the last few matches could have a big impact on Svechnikov’s season as a whole.

@CamMacHockey:

– I’m happy that Svechnikov finally caught the wave after all the injuries he suffered recently.

@Laurampeixoto:

– Svech is the love of my life.

@ChrisLail:

– Svech only scored a crazy third goal.

@TriangIeLancer:

– Thanks to Svech for this hat-trick, because he was part of my Fantasy team. I hope he continues in the same vein.

@ChrisDennisL:

– Svech is an extremely important player for Carolina. I like to see him mature and his game become more and more mature.

@Thomaspford:

– Svechnikov’s third goal was very impressive. Throwing the puck from such a position is strong.

DaveG:

– Look and admire! The exterminator Mr. Svechnikov himself!

Marathonman256:

– It’s definitely not Nikita Kucherov?

Failed hope:

– Well, watch out, NHL!

Auto-Hockey2006:

– Svechnikov has always had a first-rate ability to make a difference.

Recall that in the match against Montreal, Svechnikov played 16 minutes and 7 seconds, finishing the match with a utility indicator of “+3”.

Prior to this match, Svechnikov had not scored more than one goal in a match since February 2022.

The Russian hasn’t had a good start to the season due to his convalescence (notably in March he underwent knee surgery), but it now appears that Svechnikov is in optimal shape. He has scored more than one point in three consecutive games.

This season, 23-year-old Svechnikov scored 19 (6+13) points in 21 matches.
