BC's Perreault Gets First NHL Hat Trick

Gabe Perreault (Boston College) has notched his first NHL hat trick. 

The right wing from Sherbrooke, Quebec. tallied three goals in the New York Rangers' 4-1 win over visiting Detroit today. He collected his first goal late in the second period, added another midway through the third, and completed the trifecta by scoring into an empty net with just under two minutes remaining in regulation. He now has 10 goals and 15 assists for 25 points in 45 outings so far this season for the Rangers, who had been previously eliminated from Stanley Cup Playoff consideration for this year.

Perreault, 20, made his NHL debut last spring by going scoreless in a five-game audition with the Rangers, who drafted him 23rd overall in 2023 out of the U.S. National Team Development Program. He spent two years at BC, collecting 35-73108 points in 73 appearances with the Eagles, while helping them to two Hockey East regular-season titles and two NCAA tournament berths, including the 2024 national championship game.
