Brady Tkachuk is getting comfortable in Florida with second straight hat trick

The Florida Panthers addition of Brady Tkachuk was one of the biggest moves of the NHL offseason. It not only united him with his brother and Team USA teammate, Matthew Tkachuk, it also gave the Panthers another top-line scorer and physical presence to round their lineup.

After a slow start to his Panthers career, Tkachuk seems to be getting comfortable.

So much so that he has now recorded hat tricks in back-to-back Panthers games.

That includes Thursday's 3-2 win over the Vancouver Canucks where single-handedly led a third period comeback over the final 10 minutes of regulation.

Brady Tkachuk records second straight hat trick for Panthers

Tkachuk's debut season with the Panthers got off to a slow start with zero points in his first five games, but after getting an opportunity to move up to a line with his brother things have taken off for him (and the team).

Things started to get rolling for him earlier this week when he recorded his first Panthers point (an assist) in a 5-3 loss to the Buffalo Sabres.

He built on that in the next game with a four-point game (including a hat trick) in a 7-3 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets.

Then he followed that with Thursday's performance that was capped off with the game-winning goal in overtime.
