A record that will never be broken. The fastest hat trick scored by an NHL player, scored in ?? seconds. Hint, a good young Ukrainian Canadian.

That of course is Bill Mosienko. Yes that will very likely never be broken.

Correct!

The feat, known as a double hat-trick, is not necessarily four consecutive deliveries in the match; it's four consecutive deliveries by the bowler in the match. A bowler does not bowl more than six consecutive balls, unless penalized for an illegal delivery. Theoretically, a hat-trick in a Test match could be achieved with balls bowled on three different days.

Darryl Sittler holds the NHL record with 10 points in a game. There are numerous Leafs that have scored 6 points in a game, latest being Marner last night, but there are only 2 Leafs that have scored 7 points in a game, who are they?

I'm pretty sure Sittler also had a 7 point game so I'll guess him. Given that I'll also guess his linemate Lanny McDonald.

Sittler is Correct!, one to go!
Sheet. I don't think it was either of the D men Turnbull or Salming. Leaves either Sundin or Dougie as the most likely. Or maybe one of the old timers who played like 30 minutes per game.
I'll go with Syl Apps as my 2nd guess.

I might have seen the answer during the telecast. IIRC, it was a really, really old timer. I think his name started with a "D".
