Just a day removed from playing in his 1,100th career game, Phil Kessel tallied a natural hat trick on Saturday, guiding the Arizona Coyotes to a 4-0 defeat of the San Jose Sharks. The 33-year-old winger has been hot of late, scoring 5 goals and adding 3 assists in his last 5 games played. 

One of 3 NHL players who are on incredible ironman streaks in the league, the Madison-native is now only 86 games away from breaking the most consecutive games played streak of 964, held by Doug Jarvis.
