Brady Tkachuk scored three goals, each assisted by his brother Matthew, as the Florida Panthers routed the Columbus Blue Jackets 7-3. The brothers combined for nine points in the game, with Matthew recording five assists overall and Brady adding one assist. All three of Brady's goals came within 8:03 of ice time in the second period, making him the ninth Panthers player to score three goals in a single period.

Matthew's achievement of assisting on each goal of Brady's natural hat trick is historic. According to Fox News, Brady became the ninth player in NHL history to have a hat trick where each goal was assisted by his brother, and the first since Daniel Sedin received help from Henrik in 2015. The brothers were recently reunited on the Panthers after Brady was traded to join Matthew on the team following they had both helped Team USA win Olympic gold together earlier this year.
