Ducks’ Gauthier makes NHL history as first player to accomplish feat

On Tuesday, Anaheim Ducks forward Cutter Gauthier achieved NHL history by becoming the first player to score multiple power-play goals in three consecutive games. The 22-year-old forward contributed to his team's 5-4 victory over the Vancouver Canucks, netting twice on the power play - once in the first period and again in the second.

This remarkable feat marks Gauthier's second consecutive hat trick, making him the first Ducks franchise player to accomplish back-to-back hat tricks. Gauthier's historic performance follows a string of impressive play, as he has scored eight goals in his last three games and extended his point streak to five consecutive contests.
