The living Stanley Cup Hat Trick, or should I say Pat trick – has signed an extension with the defending champs for two years worth an AAV of 1 million. After winning a Stanley Cup with his native St. Louis Blues, he helped the Tamp Bay Lightning become back-to-back champions, becoming the first player to win three consecutive Stanley cups since the 1980-83 New York Islanders roster.
Since 2019, Pat Maroon has made a whopping 74 playoff appearances, more than any other player in the last three seasons. He has scored six goals and had 17 points in his personal three-peat, including this stunning game-tying goal that is one of my personal favorites.
Aside from his leadership skills and veteran experience, Patty has also been known to be a modern-day enforcer of sorts, as he has become well known across the league for his physical presence and never shying away from a fight, especially when the Bolts need a boost to get going. He also loves to get in opponents’ heads with his on-ice taunting and chirping and has provided some of the best Mic’d up content in the entire NHL.
