Joe Snively scores second career hat trick in Hershey Bears’ 5-3 win over Springfield

The Hershey Bears’ depth has been depleted this season as their parent NHL club, the Washington Capitals, has experienced injury woes during the first two months of the season. Currently, prospect forwards Connor McMichael, Brett Leason, and Axel Jonsson-Fjallby are all in Washington as fill-ins with Nicklas Backstrom, TJ Oshie, and Anthony Mantha all out long-term with injuries.

But the Bears are still winning and on Sunday against the Springfield Thunderbirds, local product Joe Snively scored his second professional hat trick to power Hershey to a 5-3 win at Giant Center.

Zach Fucale made 26 saves for his third win of the season. Hershey’s record is now 5-2-2-1 through 10 regular-season games.

With no fans this season, hat tricks celebrations just aren’t the same. But Braden Holtby recently did his best to make a teammate’s first career hatty feel special.

On this day in Capitals history, Nicklas Backstrom scored his first career regular-season hat trick 🎩

Nicklas Backstrom is usually a setup man, but six years ago to the day, he was the finisher.

Because the even-strength goals were scored consecutively, it was considered a natural hat trick – the first time a Capitals player had done so since Alex Semin in 2010.
