Connie Madigan played most of his years in the old WHL with Portland, but finally made the NHL as a 38 year old with the St. Louis Blues for about 20 games. NBC broadcast two of his games on February 25, 1973 (a Sunday afternoon 5-0 loss to Detroit at the Olympia) and on March 25, 1973 (another Sunday afternoon game this time at the Philadelphia Spectrum in which the Blues lost 5-2). He basically wrapped up his days as a player the following season in 1973-74 with stops in Portland and San Diego.

As I read this I was thinking that I have never been to a hockey game and in my 65 years never even missed it. I actually don't have a clue what a "Hat Trick" is.
