Apps got his first hat trick
against the Isles, not the Seals. |
The Penguins were flying high against the expansion New York Islanders on December 13, 1972, skating away with a 9-1 victory at the Igloo. It was a banner night for Syl Apps, Jr., who set a team record with six points, half of those coming in the form of his first career hat trick.
Rookie goalie Denis Herron narrowly missed his second straight shutout against the Isles, giving up a goal with only four ticks left on the clock.
