Hartnell finds success in the slot

It’s fair to say that this past weekend was probably the best weekend Scott Hartnell has had in a long time.

“Five goals in two games,” he said on Sunday. “It's a good weekend for anybody.”

On Saturday afternoon, he scored two goals against the New Jersey Devils. Both goals came on the power play, with the first being the eventual game-winner.

Then on Sunday, against the best defensive team in the league the Boston Bruins, Hartnell scored a natural hat trick in the second period to give the Flyers a one goal lead after the team began the period down by two.
